So the greatest common factor 5190,5037 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 852,9540
2 | 852, 9540 |
2 | 426, 4770 |
3 | 213, 2385 |
71, 795 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 3 x 71 x 795 = 677340
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/677340
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5190/852,5037/9540 is 3/677340
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 852,9540 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(852,9540) = 12
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(852,9540) x common factors =12 x 1 = 12
LCM(852,9540) = ( 852 × 9540 ) / 12
LCM(852,9540) = 8128080 / 12
LCM(852,9540) = 677340
