3 | 585, 9948 |
195, 3316 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 195 x 3316 = 1939860
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/1939860
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2062/585,3140/9948 is 2/1939860
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 585,9948 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(585,9948) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(585,9948) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(585,9948) = ( 585 × 9948 ) / 3
LCM(585,9948) = 5819580 / 3
LCM(585,9948) = 1939860
