Lets's calculate LCM of 524,6226
2 | 524, 6226 |
262, 3113 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 262 x 3113 = 1631212
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 16/1631212
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7024/524,5232/6226 is 16/1631212
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 524,6226 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(524,6226) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(524,6226) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(524,6226) = ( 524 × 6226 ) / 2
LCM(524,6226) = 3262424 / 2
LCM(524,6226) = 1631212
