Lets's calculate LCM of 844,3484
2 | 844, 3484 |
2 | 422, 1742 |
211, 871 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 211 x 871 = 735124
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/735124
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2431/844,5404/3484 is 1/735124
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 844,3484 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(844,3484) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(844,3484) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(844,3484) = ( 844 × 3484 ) / 4
LCM(844,3484) = 2940496 / 4
LCM(844,3484) = 735124
