So the greatest common factor 7214,1002 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 456,3166
2 | 456, 3166 |
228, 1583 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 228 x 1583 = 721848
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/721848
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7214/456,1002/3166 is 2/721848
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 456,3166 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(456,3166) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(456,3166) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(456,3166) = ( 456 × 3166 ) / 2
LCM(456,3166) = 1443696 / 2
LCM(456,3166) = 721848
