Lets's calculate LCM of 361,2964
19 | 361, 2964 |
19, 156 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 19 x 19 x 156 = 56316
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 6/56316
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5514/361,7896/2964 is 6/56316
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 361,2964 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(361,2964) = 19
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(361,2964) x common factors =19 x 1 = 19
LCM(361,2964) = ( 361 × 2964 ) / 19
LCM(361,2964) = 1070004 / 19
LCM(361,2964) = 56316
