So the greatest common factor 5594,5706 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 894,126
2 | 894, 126 |
3 | 447, 63 |
149, 21 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 149 x 21 = 18774
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/18774
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5594/894,5706/126 is 2/18774
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 894,126 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(894,126) = 6
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(894,126) x common factors =6 x 1 = 6
LCM(894,126) = ( 894 × 126 ) / 6
LCM(894,126) = 112644 / 6
LCM(894,126) = 18774
