Lets's calculate LCM of 528,3654
2 | 528, 3654 |
3 | 264, 1827 |
88, 609 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 88 x 609 = 321552
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/321552
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2950/528,1798/3654 is 2/321552
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 528,3654 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(528,3654) = 6
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(528,3654) x common factors =6 x 1 = 6
LCM(528,3654) = ( 528 × 3654 ) / 6
LCM(528,3654) = 1929312 / 6
LCM(528,3654) = 321552
