Lets's calculate LCM of 162,858
2 | 162, 858 |
3 | 81, 429 |
27, 143 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 27 x 143 = 23166
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/23166
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6706/162,5230/858 is 2/23166
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 162,858 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(162,858) = 6
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(162,858) x common factors =6 x 1 = 6
LCM(162,858) = ( 162 × 858 ) / 6
LCM(162,858) = 138996 / 6
LCM(162,858) = 23166
