Lets's calculate LCM of 242,3426
2 | 242, 3426 |
121, 1713 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 121 x 1713 = 414546
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/414546
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3043/242,7018/3426 is 1/414546
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 242,3426 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(242,3426) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(242,3426) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(242,3426) = ( 242 × 3426 ) / 2
LCM(242,3426) = 829092 / 2
LCM(242,3426) = 414546
