Lets's calculate LCM of 824,294
2 | 824, 294 |
412, 147 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 412 x 147 = 121128
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/121128
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 284/824,4010/294 is 2/121128
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 824,294 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(824,294) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(824,294) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(824,294) = ( 824 × 294 ) / 2
LCM(824,294) = 242256 / 2
LCM(824,294) = 121128
