Lets's calculate LCM of 524,1674
2 | 524, 1674 |
262, 837 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 262 x 837 = 438588
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/438588
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5078/524,7656/1674 is 2/438588
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 524,1674 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(524,1674) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(524,1674) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(524,1674) = ( 524 × 1674 ) / 2
LCM(524,1674) = 877176 / 2
LCM(524,1674) = 438588
