Lets's calculate LCM of 542,5372
2 | 542, 5372 |
271, 2686 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 271 x 2686 = 1455812
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1455812
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8261/542,3705/5372 is 1/1455812
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 542,5372 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(542,5372) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(542,5372) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(542,5372) = ( 542 × 5372 ) / 2
LCM(542,5372) = 2911624 / 2
LCM(542,5372) = 1455812
