Lets's calculate LCM of 482,2198
2 | 482, 2198 |
241, 1099 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 241 x 1099 = 529718
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 14/529718
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1344/482,3598/2198 is 14/529718
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 482,2198 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(482,2198) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(482,2198) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(482,2198) = ( 482 × 2198 ) / 2
LCM(482,2198) = 1059436 / 2
LCM(482,2198) = 529718
