So the greatest common factor 2670,7425 is 15.
Lets's calculate LCM of 170,982
2 | 170, 982 |
85, 491 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 85 x 491 = 83470
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 15/83470
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2670/170,7425/982 is 15/83470
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 170,982 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(170,982) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(170,982) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(170,982) = ( 170 × 982 ) / 2
LCM(170,982) = 166940 / 2
LCM(170,982) = 83470
