So the greatest common factor 147,1854 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 982,9996
2 | 982, 9996 |
491, 4998 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 491 x 4998 = 4908036
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/4908036
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 147/982,1854/9996 is 3/4908036
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 982,9996 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(982,9996) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(982,9996) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(982,9996) = ( 982 × 9996 ) / 2
LCM(982,9996) = 9816072 / 2
LCM(982,9996) = 4908036
