So the greatest common factor 5128,6042 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 252,7854
2 | 252, 7854 |
3 | 126, 3927 |
7 | 42, 1309 |
6, 187 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 7 x 6 x 187 = 47124
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/47124
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5128/252,6042/7854 is 2/47124
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 252,7854 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(252,7854) = 42
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(252,7854) x common factors =42 x 1 = 42
LCM(252,7854) = ( 252 × 7854 ) / 42
LCM(252,7854) = 1979208 / 42
LCM(252,7854) = 47124
