Lets's calculate LCM of 423,5436
3 | 423, 5436 |
3 | 141, 1812 |
47, 604 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 3 x 47 x 604 = 255492
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/255492
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5331/423,7796/5436 is 1/255492
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 423,5436 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(423,5436) = 9
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(423,5436) x common factors =9 x 1 = 9
LCM(423,5436) = ( 423 × 5436 ) / 9
LCM(423,5436) = 2299428 / 9
LCM(423,5436) = 255492
