Lets's calculate LCM of 982,1082
2 | 982, 1082 |
491, 541 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 491 x 541 = 531262
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/531262
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7531/982,7437/1082 is 1/531262
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 982,1082 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(982,1082) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(982,1082) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(982,1082) = ( 982 × 1082 ) / 2
LCM(982,1082) = 1062524 / 2
LCM(982,1082) = 531262
