Lets's calculate LCM of 986,1479
| 17 | 986, 1479 |
| 29 | 58, 87 |
| 2, 3 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 17 x 29 x 2 x 3 = 2958
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 41/2958
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2747/986,1681/1479 is 41/2958
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 986,1479 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(986,1479) = 493
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(986,1479) x common factors =493 x 1 = 493
LCM(986,1479) = ( 986 × 1479 ) / 493
LCM(986,1479) = 1458294 / 493
LCM(986,1479) = 2958
