Lets's calculate LCM of 466,5256
2 | 466, 5256 |
233, 2628 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 233 x 2628 = 1224648
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1224648
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5359/466,1543/5256 is 1/1224648
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 466,5256 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(466,5256) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(466,5256) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(466,5256) = ( 466 × 5256 ) / 2
LCM(466,5256) = 2449296 / 2
LCM(466,5256) = 1224648
