Lets's calculate LCM of 294,4756
2 | 294, 4756 |
147, 2378 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 147 x 2378 = 699132
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 24/699132
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 24/294,6312/4756 is 24/699132
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 294,4756 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(294,4756) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(294,4756) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(294,4756) = ( 294 × 4756 ) / 2
LCM(294,4756) = 1398264 / 2
LCM(294,4756) = 699132
