Lets's calculate LCM of 888,7148
2 | 888, 7148 |
2 | 444, 3574 |
222, 1787 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 222 x 1787 = 1586856
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1586856
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5465/888,1517/7148 is 1/1586856
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 888,7148 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(888,7148) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(888,7148) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(888,7148) = ( 888 × 7148 ) / 4
LCM(888,7148) = 6347424 / 4
LCM(888,7148) = 1586856
