2 | 266, 4256 |
7 | 133, 2128 |
19 | 19, 304 |
1, 16 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 7 x 19 x 1 x 16 = 4256
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/4256
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9697/266,1796/4256 is 1/4256
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 266,4256 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(266,4256) = 266
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(266,4256) x common factors =266 x 1 = 266
LCM(266,4256) = ( 266 × 4256 ) / 266
LCM(266,4256) = 1132096 / 266
LCM(266,4256) = 4256
