2 | 674, 4072 |
337, 2036 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 337 x 2036 = 1372264
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/1372264
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4418/674,3142/4072 is 2/1372264
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 674,4072 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(674,4072) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(674,4072) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(674,4072) = ( 674 × 4072 ) / 2
LCM(674,4072) = 2744528 / 2
LCM(674,4072) = 1372264
