Lets's calculate LCM of 538,876
2 | 538, 876 |
269, 438 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 269 x 438 = 235644
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/235644
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 754/538,3425/876 is 1/235644
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 538,876 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(538,876) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(538,876) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(538,876) = ( 538 × 876 ) / 2
LCM(538,876) = 471288 / 2
LCM(538,876) = 235644
