2 | 894, 5420 |
447, 2710 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 447 x 2710 = 2422740
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/2422740
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6172/894,2677/5420 is 1/2422740
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 894,5420 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(894,5420) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(894,5420) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(894,5420) = ( 894 × 5420 ) / 2
LCM(894,5420) = 4845480 / 2
LCM(894,5420) = 2422740
