Lets's calculate LCM of 470,2890
2 | 470, 2890 |
5 | 235, 1445 |
47, 289 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 5 x 47 x 289 = 135830
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/135830
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3677/470,3470/2890 is 1/135830
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 470,2890 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(470,2890) = 10
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(470,2890) x common factors =10 x 1 = 10
LCM(470,2890) = ( 470 × 2890 ) / 10
LCM(470,2890) = 1358300 / 10
LCM(470,2890) = 135830
