Lets's calculate LCM of 867,5268
3 | 867, 5268 |
289, 1756 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 289 x 1756 = 1522452
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1522452
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5501/867,1706/5268 is 1/1522452
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 867,5268 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(867,5268) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(867,5268) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(867,5268) = ( 867 × 5268 ) / 3
LCM(867,5268) = 4567356 / 3
LCM(867,5268) = 1522452
