Lets's calculate LCM of 620,3522
2 | 620, 3522 |
310, 1761 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 310 x 1761 = 1091820
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 7/1091820
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5873/620,7938/3522 is 7/1091820
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 620,3522 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(620,3522) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(620,3522) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(620,3522) = ( 620 × 3522 ) / 2
LCM(620,3522) = 2183640 / 2
LCM(620,3522) = 1091820
