Lets's calculate LCM of 842,2458
2 | 842, 2458 |
421, 1229 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 421 x 1229 = 1034818
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/1034818
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7202/842,1134/2458 is 2/1034818
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 842,2458 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(842,2458) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(842,2458) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(842,2458) = ( 842 × 2458 ) / 2
LCM(842,2458) = 2069636 / 2
LCM(842,2458) = 1034818
