Lets's calculate LCM of 238,5426
2 | 238, 5426 |
119, 2713 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 119 x 2713 = 645694
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/645694
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7112/238,7117/5426 is 1/645694
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 238,5426 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(238,5426) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(238,5426) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(238,5426) = ( 238 × 5426 ) / 2
LCM(238,5426) = 1291388 / 2
LCM(238,5426) = 645694
