Lets's calculate LCM of 969,834
3 | 969, 834 |
323, 278 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 323 x 278 = 269382
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/269382
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1374/969,2372/834 is 2/269382
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 969,834 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(969,834) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(969,834) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(969,834) = ( 969 × 834 ) / 3
LCM(969,834) = 808146 / 3
LCM(969,834) = 269382
