Lets's calculate LCM of 626,9614
2 | 626, 9614 |
313, 4807 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 313 x 4807 = 3009182
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/3009182
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7138/626,3142/9614 is 2/3009182
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 626,9614 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(626,9614) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(626,9614) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(626,9614) = ( 626 × 9614 ) / 2
LCM(626,9614) = 6018364 / 2
LCM(626,9614) = 3009182
