Lets's calculate LCM of 624,7154
2 | 624, 7154 |
312, 3577 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 312 x 3577 = 2232048
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 9/2232048
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6021/624,1521/7154 is 9/2232048
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 624,7154 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(624,7154) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(624,7154) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(624,7154) = ( 624 × 7154 ) / 2
LCM(624,7154) = 4464096 / 2
LCM(624,7154) = 2232048
