So the greatest common factor 7151,2506 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 844,708
2 | 844, 708 |
2 | 422, 354 |
211, 177 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 211 x 177 = 149388
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/149388
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7151/844,2506/708 is 1/149388
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 844,708 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(844,708) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(844,708) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(844,708) = ( 844 × 708 ) / 4
LCM(844,708) = 597552 / 4
LCM(844,708) = 149388
