Lets's calculate LCM of 357,2142
3 | 357, 2142 |
7 | 119, 714 |
17 | 17, 102 |
1, 6 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 7 x 17 x 1 x 6 = 2142
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/2142
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5414/357,4852/2142 is 2/2142
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 357,2142 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(357,2142) = 357
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(357,2142) x common factors =357 x 1 = 357
LCM(357,2142) = ( 357 × 2142 ) / 357
LCM(357,2142) = 764694 / 357
LCM(357,2142) = 2142
