Lets's calculate LCM of 382,532
2 | 382, 532 |
191, 266 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 191 x 266 = 101612
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/101612
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5481/382,5941/532 is 1/101612
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 382,532 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(382,532) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(382,532) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(382,532) = ( 382 × 532 ) / 2
LCM(382,532) = 203224 / 2
LCM(382,532) = 101612
