2 | 118, 614 |
59, 307 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 59 x 307 = 36226
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/36226
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 276/118,958/614 is 2/36226
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 118,614 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(118,614) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(118,614) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(118,614) = ( 118 × 614 ) / 2
LCM(118,614) = 72452 / 2
LCM(118,614) = 36226
