Lets's calculate LCM of 252,5688
2 | 252, 5688 |
2 | 126, 2844 |
3 | 63, 1422 |
3 | 21, 474 |
7, 158 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 x 7 x 158 = 39816
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/39816
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5331/252,5766/5688 is 3/39816
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 252,5688 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(252,5688) = 36
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(252,5688) x common factors =36 x 1 = 36
LCM(252,5688) = ( 252 × 5688 ) / 36
LCM(252,5688) = 1433376 / 36
LCM(252,5688) = 39816
