So the greatest common factor 5250,2669 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 496,170
| 2 | 496, 170 |
| 248, 85 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 248 x 85 = 42160
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/42160
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5250/496,2669/170 is 1/42160
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 496,170 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(496,170) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(496,170) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(496,170) = ( 496 × 170 ) / 2
LCM(496,170) = 84320 / 2
LCM(496,170) = 42160
