Lets's calculate LCM of 254,2290
2 | 254, 2290 |
127, 1145 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 127 x 1145 = 290830
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 19/290830
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5548/254,7277/2290 is 19/290830
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 254,2290 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(254,2290) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(254,2290) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(254,2290) = ( 254 × 2290 ) / 2
LCM(254,2290) = 581660 / 2
LCM(254,2290) = 290830
