Lets's calculate LCM of 948,8274
2 | 948, 8274 |
3 | 474, 4137 |
158, 1379 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 158 x 1379 = 1307292
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/1307292
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1434/948,5638/8274 is 2/1307292
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 948,8274 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(948,8274) = 6
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(948,8274) x common factors =6 x 1 = 6
LCM(948,8274) = ( 948 × 8274 ) / 6
LCM(948,8274) = 7843752 / 6
LCM(948,8274) = 1307292
