Lets's calculate LCM of 378,6214
2 | 378, 6214 |
189, 3107 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 189 x 3107 = 1174446
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1174446
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5217/378,2108/6214 is 1/1174446
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 378,6214 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(378,6214) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(378,6214) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(378,6214) = ( 378 × 6214 ) / 2
LCM(378,6214) = 2348892 / 2
LCM(378,6214) = 1174446
