Lets's calculate LCM of 354,884
2 | 354, 884 |
177, 442 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 177 x 442 = 156468
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/156468
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2415/354,8559/884 is 3/156468
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 354,884 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(354,884) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(354,884) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(354,884) = ( 354 × 884 ) / 2
LCM(354,884) = 312936 / 2
LCM(354,884) = 156468
