Lets's calculate LCM of 602,9159
43 | 602, 9159 |
14, 213 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 43 x 14 x 213 = 128226
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/128226
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5888/602,2314/9159 is 2/128226
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 602,9159 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(602,9159) = 43
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(602,9159) x common factors =43 x 1 = 43
LCM(602,9159) = ( 602 × 9159 ) / 43
LCM(602,9159) = 5513718 / 43
LCM(602,9159) = 128226
