So the greatest common factor 6258,9624 is 6.
Lets's calculate LCM of 268,5316
2 | 268, 5316 |
2 | 134, 2658 |
67, 1329 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 67 x 1329 = 356172
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 6/356172
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6258/268,9624/5316 is 6/356172
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 268,5316 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(268,5316) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(268,5316) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(268,5316) = ( 268 × 5316 ) / 4
LCM(268,5316) = 1424688 / 4
LCM(268,5316) = 356172
