2 | 242, 7230 |
121, 3615 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 121 x 3615 = 874830
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/874830
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5157/242,9691/7230 is 1/874830
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 242,7230 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(242,7230) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(242,7230) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(242,7230) = ( 242 × 7230 ) / 2
LCM(242,7230) = 1749660 / 2
LCM(242,7230) = 874830
