Lets's calculate LCM of 282,406
2 | 282, 406 |
141, 203 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 141 x 203 = 57246
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/57246
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8577/282,5628/406 is 3/57246
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 282,406 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(282,406) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(282,406) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(282,406) = ( 282 × 406 ) / 2
LCM(282,406) = 114492 / 2
LCM(282,406) = 57246
