Lets's calculate LCM of 978,9454
2 | 978, 9454 |
163 | 489, 4727 |
3, 29 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 163 x 3 x 29 = 28362
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/28362
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 17/978,8664/9454 is 1/28362
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 978,9454 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(978,9454) = 326
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(978,9454) x common factors =326 x 1 = 326
LCM(978,9454) = ( 978 × 9454 ) / 326
LCM(978,9454) = 9246012 / 326
LCM(978,9454) = 28362
