2 | 732, 5422 |
366, 2711 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 366 x 2711 = 1984452
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1984452
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5288/732,1429/5422 is 1/1984452
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 732,5422 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(732,5422) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(732,5422) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(732,5422) = ( 732 × 5422 ) / 2
LCM(732,5422) = 3968904 / 2
LCM(732,5422) = 1984452
