Lets's calculate LCM of 642,2782
2 | 642, 2782 |
107 | 321, 1391 |
3, 13 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 107 x 3 x 13 = 8346
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/8346
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2512/642,8270/2782 is 2/8346
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 642,2782 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(642,2782) = 214
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(642,2782) x common factors =214 x 1 = 214
LCM(642,2782) = ( 642 × 2782 ) / 214
LCM(642,2782) = 1786044 / 214
LCM(642,2782) = 8346
