Lets's calculate LCM of 782,4526
2 | 782, 4526 |
391, 2263 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 391 x 2263 = 1769666
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1769666
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5291/782,5964/4526 is 1/1769666
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 782,4526 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(782,4526) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(782,4526) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(782,4526) = ( 782 × 4526 ) / 2
LCM(782,4526) = 3539332 / 2
LCM(782,4526) = 1769666
