Lets's calculate LCM of 170,9878
2 | 170, 9878 |
85, 4939 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 85 x 4939 = 839630
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/839630
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1261/170,6258/9878 is 1/839630
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 170,9878 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(170,9878) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(170,9878) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(170,9878) = ( 170 × 9878 ) / 2
LCM(170,9878) = 1679260 / 2
LCM(170,9878) = 839630
