Lets's calculate LCM of 963,1494
3 | 963, 1494 |
3 | 321, 498 |
107, 166 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 3 x 107 x 166 = 159858
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 218/159858
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2398/963,6540/1494 is 218/159858
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 963,1494 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(963,1494) = 9
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(963,1494) x common factors =9 x 1 = 9
LCM(963,1494) = ( 963 × 1494 ) / 9
LCM(963,1494) = 1438722 / 9
LCM(963,1494) = 159858
