Lets's calculate LCM of 182,2042
2 | 182, 2042 |
91, 1021 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 91 x 1021 = 185822
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/185822
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5251/182,8469/2042 is 1/185822
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 182,2042 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(182,2042) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(182,2042) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(182,2042) = ( 182 × 2042 ) / 2
LCM(182,2042) = 371644 / 2
LCM(182,2042) = 185822
