Lets's calculate LCM of 898,660
2 | 898, 660 |
449, 330 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 449 x 330 = 296340
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 132/296340
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2772/898,2244/660 is 132/296340
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 898,660 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(898,660) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(898,660) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(898,660) = ( 898 × 660 ) / 2
LCM(898,660) = 592680 / 2
LCM(898,660) = 296340
