So the greatest common factor 2506,2086 is 14.
Lets's calculate LCM of 270,348
2 | 270, 348 |
3 | 135, 174 |
45, 58 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 45 x 58 = 15660
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 14/15660
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2506/270,2086/348 is 14/15660
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 270,348 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(270,348) = 6
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(270,348) x common factors =6 x 1 = 6
LCM(270,348) = ( 270 × 348 ) / 6
LCM(270,348) = 93960 / 6
LCM(270,348) = 15660
