2 | 18, 2198 |
9, 1099 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 9 x 1099 = 19782
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 29/19782
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 319/18,609/2198 is 29/19782
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 18,2198 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(18,2198) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(18,2198) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(18,2198) = ( 18 × 2198 ) / 2
LCM(18,2198) = 39564 / 2
LCM(18,2198) = 19782
