So the greatest common factor 7460,3088 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 504,5382
2 | 504, 5382 |
3 | 252, 2691 |
3 | 84, 897 |
28, 299 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 3 x 28 x 299 = 150696
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/150696
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7460/504,3088/5382 is 4/150696
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 504,5382 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(504,5382) = 18
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(504,5382) x common factors =18 x 1 = 18
LCM(504,5382) = ( 504 × 5382 ) / 18
LCM(504,5382) = 2712528 / 18
LCM(504,5382) = 150696
