2 | 974, 1738 |
487, 869 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 487 x 869 = 846406
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/846406
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2761/974,7815/1738 is 1/846406
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 974,1738 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(974,1738) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(974,1738) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(974,1738) = ( 974 × 1738 ) / 2
LCM(974,1738) = 1692812 / 2
LCM(974,1738) = 846406
