Lets's calculate LCM of 534,9453
3 | 534, 9453 |
178, 3151 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 178 x 3151 = 1682634
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/1682634
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7582/534,3542/9453 is 2/1682634
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 534,9453 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(534,9453) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(534,9453) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(534,9453) = ( 534 × 9453 ) / 3
LCM(534,9453) = 5047902 / 3
LCM(534,9453) = 1682634
