Lets's calculate LCM of 310,2466
2 | 310, 2466 |
155, 1233 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 155 x 1233 = 382230
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 12/382230
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1272/310,9372/2466 is 12/382230
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 310,2466 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(310,2466) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(310,2466) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(310,2466) = ( 310 × 2466 ) / 2
LCM(310,2466) = 764460 / 2
LCM(310,2466) = 382230
