Lets's calculate LCM of 506,7278
2 | 506, 7278 |
253, 3639 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 253 x 3639 = 1841334
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1841334
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2598/506,1519/7278 is 1/1841334
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 506,7278 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(506,7278) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(506,7278) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(506,7278) = ( 506 × 7278 ) / 2
LCM(506,7278) = 3682668 / 2
LCM(506,7278) = 1841334
