Lets's calculate LCM of 22,862
2 | 22, 862 |
11, 431 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 11 x 431 = 9482
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 14/9482
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6118/22,6902/862 is 14/9482
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 22,862 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(22,862) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(22,862) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(22,862) = ( 22 × 862 ) / 2
LCM(22,862) = 18964 / 2
LCM(22,862) = 9482
