Lets's calculate LCM of 244,734
2 | 244, 734 |
122, 367 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 122 x 367 = 89548
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 148/89548
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2368/244,8140/734 is 148/89548
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 244,734 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(244,734) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(244,734) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(244,734) = ( 244 × 734 ) / 2
LCM(244,734) = 179096 / 2
LCM(244,734) = 89548
