We found the factors 334,4546 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 334,4546 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 974,206
2 | 974, 206 |
487, 103 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 487 x 103 = 100322
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/100322
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 334/974,4546/206 is 2/100322
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 974,206 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(974,206) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(974,206) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(974,206) = ( 974 × 206 ) / 2
LCM(974,206) = 200644 / 2
LCM(974,206) = 100322
