2 | 986, 9740 |
493, 4870 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 493 x 4870 = 4801820
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/4801820
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2658/986,9788/9740 is 2/4801820
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 986,9740 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(986,9740) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(986,9740) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(986,9740) = ( 986 × 9740 ) / 2
LCM(986,9740) = 9603640 / 2
LCM(986,9740) = 4801820
