So the greatest common factor 5143,4192 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 258,146
2 | 258, 146 |
129, 73 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 129 x 73 = 18834
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/18834
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5143/258,4192/146 is 1/18834
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 258,146 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(258,146) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(258,146) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(258,146) = ( 258 × 146 ) / 2
LCM(258,146) = 37668 / 2
LCM(258,146) = 18834
