Lets's calculate LCM of 156,7138
2 | 156, 7138 |
78, 3569 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 78 x 3569 = 556764
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/556764
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5011/156,3702/7138 is 1/556764
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 156,7138 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(156,7138) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(156,7138) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(156,7138) = ( 156 × 7138 ) / 2
LCM(156,7138) = 1113528 / 2
LCM(156,7138) = 556764
