Lets's calculate LCM of 986,942
2 | 986, 942 |
493, 471 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 493 x 471 = 464406
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/464406
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1931/986,3689/942 is 1/464406
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 986,942 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(986,942) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(986,942) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(986,942) = ( 986 × 942 ) / 2
LCM(986,942) = 928812 / 2
LCM(986,942) = 464406
