So the greatest common factor 5874,2013 is 33.
Lets's calculate LCM of 208,1942
2 | 208, 1942 |
104, 971 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 104 x 971 = 201968
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 33/201968
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5874/208,2013/1942 is 33/201968
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 208,1942 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(208,1942) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(208,1942) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(208,1942) = ( 208 × 1942 ) / 2
LCM(208,1942) = 403936 / 2
LCM(208,1942) = 201968
