So the greatest common factor 1954,1469 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 429,286
11 | 429, 286 |
13 | 39, 26 |
3, 2 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 11 x 13 x 3 x 2 = 858
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/858
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1954/429,1469/286 is 1/858
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 429,286 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(429,286) = 143
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(429,286) x common factors =143 x 1 = 143
LCM(429,286) = ( 429 × 286 ) / 143
LCM(429,286) = 122694 / 143
LCM(429,286) = 858
