2 | 502, 3420 |
251, 1710 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 251 x 1710 = 858420
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/858420
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6478/502,1689/3420 is 1/858420
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 502,3420 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(502,3420) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(502,3420) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(502,3420) = ( 502 × 3420 ) / 2
LCM(502,3420) = 1716840 / 2
LCM(502,3420) = 858420
