Lets's calculate LCM of 738,492
2 | 738, 492 |
3 | 369, 246 |
41 | 123, 82 |
3, 2 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 41 x 3 x 2 = 1476
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1476
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 241/738,3510/492 is 1/1476
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 738,492 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(738,492) = 246
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(738,492) x common factors =246 x 1 = 246
LCM(738,492) = ( 738 × 492 ) / 246
LCM(738,492) = 363096 / 246
LCM(738,492) = 1476
