Lets's calculate LCM of 506,4378
2 | 506, 4378 |
11 | 253, 2189 |
23, 199 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 11 x 23 x 199 = 100694
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/100694
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5939/506,1851/4378 is 1/100694
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 506,4378 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(506,4378) = 22
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(506,4378) x common factors =22 x 1 = 22
LCM(506,4378) = ( 506 × 4378 ) / 22
LCM(506,4378) = 2215268 / 22
LCM(506,4378) = 100694
