Lets's calculate LCM of 249,4494
3 | 249, 4494 |
83, 1498 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 83 x 1498 = 373002
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/373002
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2702/249,2320/4494 is 2/373002
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 249,4494 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(249,4494) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(249,4494) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(249,4494) = ( 249 × 4494 ) / 3
LCM(249,4494) = 1119006 / 3
LCM(249,4494) = 373002
