So the greatest common factor 2588,5390 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 26,862
2 | 26, 862 |
13, 431 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 13 x 431 = 11206
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/11206
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2588/26,5390/862 is 2/11206
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 26,862 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(26,862) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(26,862) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(26,862) = ( 26 × 862 ) / 2
LCM(26,862) = 22412 / 2
LCM(26,862) = 11206
