Lets's calculate LCM of 600,1558
2 | 600, 1558 |
300, 779 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 300 x 779 = 467400
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 14/467400
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5278/600,3934/1558 is 14/467400
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 600,1558 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(600,1558) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(600,1558) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(600,1558) = ( 600 × 1558 ) / 2
LCM(600,1558) = 934800 / 2
LCM(600,1558) = 467400
