So the greatest common factor 6524,4844 is 28.
Lets's calculate LCM of 952,262
2 | 952, 262 |
476, 131 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 476 x 131 = 124712
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 28/124712
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6524/952,4844/262 is 28/124712
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 952,262 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(952,262) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(952,262) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(952,262) = ( 952 × 262 ) / 2
LCM(952,262) = 249424 / 2
LCM(952,262) = 124712
