Lets's calculate LCM of 510,3958
2 | 510, 3958 |
255, 1979 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 255 x 1979 = 1009290
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/1009290
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2886/510,4191/3958 is 3/1009290
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 510,3958 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(510,3958) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(510,3958) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(510,3958) = ( 510 × 3958 ) / 2
LCM(510,3958) = 2018580 / 2
LCM(510,3958) = 1009290
