Lets's calculate LCM of 402,2546
2 | 402, 2546 |
67 | 201, 1273 |
3, 19 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 67 x 3 x 19 = 7638
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 67/7638
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6298/402,1139/2546 is 67/7638
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 402,2546 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(402,2546) = 134
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(402,2546) x common factors =134 x 1 = 134
LCM(402,2546) = ( 402 × 2546 ) / 134
LCM(402,2546) = 1023492 / 134
LCM(402,2546) = 7638
