Lets's calculate LCM of 362,2984
2 | 362, 2984 |
181, 1492 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 181 x 1492 = 540104
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/540104
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1211/362,4388/2984 is 1/540104
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 362,2984 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(362,2984) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(362,2984) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(362,2984) = ( 362 × 2984 ) / 2
LCM(362,2984) = 1080208 / 2
LCM(362,2984) = 540104
