Lets's calculate LCM of 508,3994
2 | 508, 3994 |
254, 1997 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 254 x 1997 = 1014476
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1014476
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5287/508,6029/3994 is 1/1014476
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 508,3994 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(508,3994) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(508,3994) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(508,3994) = ( 508 × 3994 ) / 2
LCM(508,3994) = 2028952 / 2
LCM(508,3994) = 1014476
