Lets's calculate LCM of 822,998
2 | 822, 998 |
411, 499 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 411 x 499 = 410178
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 10/410178
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 340/822,590/998 is 10/410178
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 822,998 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(822,998) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(822,998) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(822,998) = ( 822 × 998 ) / 2
LCM(822,998) = 820356 / 2
LCM(822,998) = 410178
