Lets's calculate LCM of 942,939
3 | 942, 939 |
314, 313 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 314 x 313 = 294846
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/294846
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2945/942,7713/939 is 1/294846
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 942,939 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(942,939) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(942,939) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(942,939) = ( 942 × 939 ) / 3
LCM(942,939) = 884538 / 3
LCM(942,939) = 294846
