Lets's calculate LCM of 804,2598
2 | 804, 2598 |
3 | 402, 1299 |
134, 433 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 134 x 433 = 348132
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/348132
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2294/804,7438/2598 is 2/348132
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 804,2598 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(804,2598) = 6
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(804,2598) x common factors =6 x 1 = 6
LCM(804,2598) = ( 804 × 2598 ) / 6
LCM(804,2598) = 2088792 / 6
LCM(804,2598) = 348132
