So the greatest common factor 6532,7364 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 662,502
2 | 662, 502 |
331, 251 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 331 x 251 = 166162
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/166162
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6532/662,7364/502 is 4/166162
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 662,502 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(662,502) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(662,502) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(662,502) = ( 662 × 502 ) / 2
LCM(662,502) = 332324 / 2
LCM(662,502) = 166162
