2 | 902, 5438 |
451, 2719 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 451 x 2719 = 2452538
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/2452538
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7282/902,3229/5438 is 1/2452538
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 902,5438 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(902,5438) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(902,5438) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(902,5438) = ( 902 × 5438 ) / 2
LCM(902,5438) = 4905076 / 2
LCM(902,5438) = 2452538
