2 | 662, 3134 |
331, 1567 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 331 x 1567 = 1037354
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1037354
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5718/662,5159/3134 is 1/1037354
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 662,3134 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(662,3134) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(662,3134) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(662,3134) = ( 662 × 3134 ) / 2
LCM(662,3134) = 2074708 / 2
LCM(662,3134) = 1037354
