Lets's calculate LCM of 538,8682
2 | 538, 8682 |
269, 4341 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 269 x 4341 = 2335458
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/2335458
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5725/538,5984/8682 is 1/2335458
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 538,8682 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(538,8682) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(538,8682) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(538,8682) = ( 538 × 8682 ) / 2
LCM(538,8682) = 4670916 / 2
LCM(538,8682) = 2335458
