So the greatest common factor 3078,9362 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 142,4898
2 | 142, 4898 |
71, 2449 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 71 x 2449 = 347758
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/347758
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3078/142,9362/4898 is 2/347758
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 142,4898 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(142,4898) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(142,4898) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(142,4898) = ( 142 × 4898 ) / 2
LCM(142,4898) = 695516 / 2
LCM(142,4898) = 347758
