2 | 722, 598 |
361, 299 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 361 x 299 = 215878
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/215878
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3086/722,3826/598 is 2/215878
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 722,598 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(722,598) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(722,598) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(722,598) = ( 722 × 598 ) / 2
LCM(722,598) = 431756 / 2
LCM(722,598) = 215878
