Lets's calculate LCM of 788,2402
2 | 788, 2402 |
394, 1201 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 394 x 1201 = 946388
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 11/946388
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3751/788,5621/2402 is 11/946388
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 788,2402 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(788,2402) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(788,2402) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(788,2402) = ( 788 × 2402 ) / 2
LCM(788,2402) = 1892776 / 2
LCM(788,2402) = 946388
