Lets's calculate LCM of 304,5170
2 | 304, 5170 |
152, 2585 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 152 x 2585 = 785840
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/785840
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9722/304,5834/5170 is 2/785840
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 304,5170 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(304,5170) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(304,5170) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(304,5170) = ( 304 × 5170 ) / 2
LCM(304,5170) = 1571680 / 2
LCM(304,5170) = 785840
