2 | 542, 6406 |
271, 3203 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 271 x 3203 = 1736026
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1736026
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9631/542,6987/6406 is 1/1736026
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 542,6406 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(542,6406) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(542,6406) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(542,6406) = ( 542 × 6406 ) / 2
LCM(542,6406) = 3472052 / 2
LCM(542,6406) = 1736026
