Lets's calculate LCM of 538,8632
2 | 538, 8632 |
269, 4316 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 269 x 4316 = 2322008
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/2322008
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4275/538,1261/8632 is 1/2322008
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 538,8632 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(538,8632) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(538,8632) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(538,8632) = ( 538 × 8632 ) / 2
LCM(538,8632) = 4644016 / 2
LCM(538,8632) = 2322008
