2 | 232, 6142 |
116, 3071 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 116 x 3071 = 712472
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 121/712472
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8591/232,9922/6142 is 121/712472
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 232,6142 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(232,6142) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(232,6142) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(232,6142) = ( 232 × 6142 ) / 2
LCM(232,6142) = 1424944 / 2
LCM(232,6142) = 712472
