Lets's calculate LCM of 278,6516
2 | 278, 6516 |
139, 3258 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 139 x 3258 = 905724
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/905724
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8427/278,4250/6516 is 1/905724
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 278,6516 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(278,6516) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(278,6516) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(278,6516) = ( 278 × 6516 ) / 2
LCM(278,6516) = 1811448 / 2
LCM(278,6516) = 905724
