So the greatest common factor 2403,2295 is 27.
Lets's calculate LCM of 994,8940
2 | 994, 8940 |
497, 4470 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 497 x 4470 = 4443180
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 27/4443180
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2403/994,2295/8940 is 27/4443180
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 994,8940 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(994,8940) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(994,8940) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(994,8940) = ( 994 × 8940 ) / 2
LCM(994,8940) = 8886360 / 2
LCM(994,8940) = 4443180
