Lets's calculate LCM of 354,1860
2 | 354, 1860 |
3 | 177, 930 |
59, 310 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 59 x 310 = 109740
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 10/109740
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2960/354,7830/1860 is 10/109740
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 354,1860 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(354,1860) = 6
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(354,1860) x common factors =6 x 1 = 6
LCM(354,1860) = ( 354 × 1860 ) / 6
LCM(354,1860) = 658440 / 6
LCM(354,1860) = 109740
