So the greatest common factor 5904,7677 is 9.
Lets's calculate LCM of 152,574
2 | 152, 574 |
76, 287 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 76 x 287 = 43624
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 9/43624
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5904/152,7677/574 is 9/43624
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 152,574 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(152,574) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(152,574) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(152,574) = ( 152 × 574 ) / 2
LCM(152,574) = 87248 / 2
LCM(152,574) = 43624
