Lets's calculate LCM of 938,604
2 | 938, 604 |
469, 302 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 469 x 302 = 283276
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/283276
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1492/938,7459/604 is 1/283276
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 938,604 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(938,604) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(938,604) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(938,604) = ( 938 × 604 ) / 2
LCM(938,604) = 566552 / 2
LCM(938,604) = 283276
