Lets's calculate LCM of 848,466
2 | 848, 466 |
424, 233 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 424 x 233 = 197584
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 13/197584
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3406/848,1963/466 is 13/197584
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 848,466 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(848,466) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(848,466) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(848,466) = ( 848 × 466 ) / 2
LCM(848,466) = 395168 / 2
LCM(848,466) = 197584
