Lets's calculate LCM of 153,3132
3 | 153, 3132 |
3 | 51, 1044 |
17, 348 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 3 x 17 x 348 = 53244
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/53244
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5498/153,4408/3132 is 2/53244
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 153,3132 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(153,3132) = 9
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(153,3132) x common factors =9 x 1 = 9
LCM(153,3132) = ( 153 × 3132 ) / 9
LCM(153,3132) = 479196 / 9
LCM(153,3132) = 53244
