Lets's calculate LCM of 492,6146
2 | 492, 6146 |
246, 3073 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 246 x 3073 = 1511916
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1511916
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9131/492,5256/6146 is 1/1511916
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 492,6146 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(492,6146) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(492,6146) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(492,6146) = ( 492 × 6146 ) / 2
LCM(492,6146) = 3023832 / 2
LCM(492,6146) = 1511916
