Lets's calculate LCM of 506,5628
2 | 506, 5628 |
253, 2814 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 253 x 2814 = 1423884
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/1423884
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1684/506,9878/5628 is 2/1423884
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 506,5628 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(506,5628) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(506,5628) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(506,5628) = ( 506 × 5628 ) / 2
LCM(506,5628) = 2847768 / 2
LCM(506,5628) = 1423884
