Lets's calculate LCM of 552,2361
3 | 552, 2361 |
184, 787 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 184 x 787 = 434424
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/434424
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5818/552,1970/2361 is 2/434424
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 552,2361 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(552,2361) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(552,2361) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(552,2361) = ( 552 × 2361 ) / 3
LCM(552,2361) = 1303272 / 3
LCM(552,2361) = 434424
