Lets's calculate LCM of 476,254
2 | 476, 254 |
238, 127 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 238 x 127 = 60452
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/60452
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7511/476,1878/254 is 1/60452
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 476,254 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(476,254) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(476,254) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(476,254) = ( 476 × 254 ) / 2
LCM(476,254) = 120904 / 2
LCM(476,254) = 60452
