So the greatest common factor 8088,2900 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 508,502
2 | 508, 502 |
254, 251 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 254 x 251 = 127508
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/127508
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8088/508,2900/502 is 4/127508
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 508,502 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(508,502) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(508,502) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(508,502) = ( 508 × 502 ) / 2
LCM(508,502) = 255016 / 2
LCM(508,502) = 127508
