So the greatest common factor 5197,2234 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 752,464
2 | 752, 464 |
2 | 376, 232 |
2 | 188, 116 |
2 | 94, 58 |
47, 29 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 47 x 29 = 21808
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/21808
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5197/752,2234/464 is 1/21808
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 752,464 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(752,464) = 16
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(752,464) x common factors =16 x 1 = 16
LCM(752,464) = ( 752 × 464 ) / 16
LCM(752,464) = 348928 / 16
LCM(752,464) = 21808
