So the greatest common factor 2367,8625 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 14,998
| 2 | 14, 998 |
| 7, 499 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 7 x 499 = 6986
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/6986
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2367/14,8625/998 is 3/6986
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 14,998 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(14,998) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(14,998) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(14,998) = ( 14 × 998 ) / 2
LCM(14,998) = 13972 / 2
LCM(14,998) = 6986
