2 | 242, 1758 |
121, 879 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 121 x 879 = 212718
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/212718
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4079/242,1815/1758 is 1/212718
The formula of LCM is LCM(a1,a2,a3....,an) = ( a1 × a2 × a3 × .... × an) / GCF(a1,a2,a3....,an) x common factors(if more than 2 numbers have common factors).
We need to calculate greatest common factor of 242,1758 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(242,1758) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(242,1758) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(242,1758) = ( 242 × 1758 ) / 2
LCM(242,1758) = 425436 / 2
LCM(242,1758) = 212718
