Lets's calculate LCM of 377,598
13 | 377, 598 |
29, 46 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 13 x 29 x 46 = 17342
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/17342
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2403/377,7035/598 is 3/17342
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 377,598 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(377,598) = 13
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(377,598) x common factors =13 x 1 = 13
LCM(377,598) = ( 377 × 598 ) / 13
LCM(377,598) = 225446 / 13
LCM(377,598) = 17342
