Lets's calculate LCM of 388,6422
2 | 388, 6422 |
194, 3211 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 194 x 3211 = 1245868
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1245868
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2741/388,2949/6422 is 1/1245868
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 388,6422 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(388,6422) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(388,6422) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(388,6422) = ( 388 × 6422 ) / 2
LCM(388,6422) = 2491736 / 2
LCM(388,6422) = 1245868
