So the greatest common factor 141,1712 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 490,174
2 | 490, 174 |
245, 87 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 245 x 87 = 42630
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/42630
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 141/490,1712/174 is 1/42630
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 490,174 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(490,174) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(490,174) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(490,174) = ( 490 × 174 ) / 2
LCM(490,174) = 85260 / 2
LCM(490,174) = 42630
