So the greatest common factor 5424,7391 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 252,314
2 | 252, 314 |
126, 157 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 126 x 157 = 39564
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/39564
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5424/252,7391/314 is 1/39564
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 252,314 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(252,314) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(252,314) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(252,314) = ( 252 × 314 ) / 2
LCM(252,314) = 79128 / 2
LCM(252,314) = 39564
