Lets's calculate LCM of 578,906
2 | 578, 906 |
289, 453 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 289 x 453 = 261834
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/261834
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3106/578,1124/906 is 2/261834
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 578,906 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(578,906) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(578,906) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(578,906) = ( 578 × 906 ) / 2
LCM(578,906) = 523668 / 2
LCM(578,906) = 261834
