Lets's calculate LCM of 770,1284
2 | 770, 1284 |
385, 642 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 385 x 642 = 494340
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 6/494340
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 246/770,3120/1284 is 6/494340
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 770,1284 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(770,1284) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(770,1284) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(770,1284) = ( 770 × 1284 ) / 2
LCM(770,1284) = 988680 / 2
LCM(770,1284) = 494340
