Lets's calculate LCM of 334,2658
2 | 334, 2658 |
167, 1329 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 167 x 1329 = 443886
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/443886
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2793/334,7971/2658 is 3/443886
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 334,2658 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(334,2658) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(334,2658) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(334,2658) = ( 334 × 2658 ) / 2
LCM(334,2658) = 887772 / 2
LCM(334,2658) = 443886
