Lets's calculate LCM of 572,574
2 | 572, 574 |
286, 287 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 286 x 287 = 164164
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/164164
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6937/572,6154/574 is 1/164164
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 572,574 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(572,574) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(572,574) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(572,574) = ( 572 × 574 ) / 2
LCM(572,574) = 328328 / 2
LCM(572,574) = 164164
