Lets's calculate LCM of 184,6556
2 | 184, 6556 |
2 | 92, 3278 |
46, 1639 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 46 x 1639 = 301576
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/301576
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5214/184,5158/6556 is 2/301576
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 184,6556 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(184,6556) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(184,6556) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(184,6556) = ( 184 × 6556 ) / 4
LCM(184,6556) = 1206304 / 4
LCM(184,6556) = 301576
