2 | 902, 3148 |
451, 1574 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 451 x 1574 = 1419748
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 49/1419748
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2989/902,9653/3148 is 49/1419748
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 902,3148 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(902,3148) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(902,3148) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(902,3148) = ( 902 × 3148 ) / 2
LCM(902,3148) = 2839496 / 2
LCM(902,3148) = 1419748
