So the greatest common factor 6212,2910 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 312,442
2 | 312, 442 |
13 | 156, 221 |
12, 17 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 13 x 12 x 17 = 5304
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/5304
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6212/312,2910/442 is 2/5304
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 312,442 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(312,442) = 26
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(312,442) x common factors =26 x 1 = 26
LCM(312,442) = ( 312 × 442 ) / 26
LCM(312,442) = 137904 / 26
LCM(312,442) = 5304
