Lets's calculate LCM of 207,456
3 | 207, 456 |
69, 152 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 69 x 152 = 31464
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/31464
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5042/207,4610/456 is 2/31464
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 207,456 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(207,456) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(207,456) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(207,456) = ( 207 × 456 ) / 3
LCM(207,456) = 94392 / 3
LCM(207,456) = 31464
