Lets's calculate LCM of 484,5731
11 | 484, 5731 |
44, 521 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 11 x 44 x 521 = 252164
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/252164
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7261/484,8042/5731 is 1/252164
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 484,5731 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(484,5731) = 11
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(484,5731) x common factors =11 x 1 = 11
LCM(484,5731) = ( 484 × 5731 ) / 11
LCM(484,5731) = 2773804 / 11
LCM(484,5731) = 252164
