So the greatest common factor 520,874 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 19,1114
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 21166
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/21166
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 520/19,874/1114 is 2/21166
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 19,1114 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(19,1114) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(19,1114) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(19,1114) = ( 19 × 1114 ) / 1
LCM(19,1114) = 21166 / 1
LCM(19,1114) = 21166
