So the greatest common factor 5404,3752 is 28.
Lets's calculate LCM of 442,4042
2 | 442, 4042 |
221, 2021 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 221 x 2021 = 893282
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 28/893282
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5404/442,3752/4042 is 28/893282
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 442,4042 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(442,4042) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(442,4042) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(442,4042) = ( 442 × 4042 ) / 2
LCM(442,4042) = 1786564 / 2
LCM(442,4042) = 893282
