Lets's calculate LCM of 252,4338
2 | 252, 4338 |
3 | 126, 2169 |
3 | 42, 723 |
14, 241 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 3 x 14 x 241 = 60732
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 7/60732
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4585/252,2891/4338 is 7/60732
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 252,4338 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(252,4338) = 18
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(252,4338) x common factors =18 x 1 = 18
LCM(252,4338) = ( 252 × 4338 ) / 18
LCM(252,4338) = 1093176 / 18
LCM(252,4338) = 60732
