Lets's calculate LCM of 819,182
7 | 819, 182 |
13 | 117, 26 |
9, 2 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 7 x 13 x 9 x 2 = 1638
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/1638
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5158/819,2290/182 is 2/1638
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 819,182 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(819,182) = 91
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(819,182) x common factors =91 x 1 = 91
LCM(819,182) = ( 819 × 182 ) / 91
LCM(819,182) = 149058 / 91
LCM(819,182) = 1638
