Lets's calculate LCM of 490,600
2 | 490, 600 |
5 | 245, 300 |
49, 60 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 5 x 49 x 60 = 29400
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/29400
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3082/490,1558/600 is 2/29400
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 490,600 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(490,600) = 10
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(490,600) x common factors =10 x 1 = 10
LCM(490,600) = ( 490 × 600 ) / 10
LCM(490,600) = 294000 / 10
LCM(490,600) = 29400
