Lets's calculate LCM of 730,8806
2 | 730, 8806 |
365, 4403 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 365 x 4403 = 3214190
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/3214190
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3131/730,3494/8806 is 1/3214190
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 730,8806 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(730,8806) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(730,8806) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(730,8806) = ( 730 × 8806 ) / 2
LCM(730,8806) = 6428380 / 2
LCM(730,8806) = 3214190
