Lets's calculate LCM of 351,1752
3 | 351, 1752 |
117, 584 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 117 x 584 = 204984
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/204984
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4276/351,6438/1752 is 2/204984
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 351,1752 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(351,1752) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(351,1752) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(351,1752) = ( 351 × 1752 ) / 3
LCM(351,1752) = 614952 / 3
LCM(351,1752) = 204984
