2 | 938, 2732 |
469, 1366 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 469 x 1366 = 1281308
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1281308
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3689/938,2458/2732 is 1/1281308
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 938,2732 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(938,2732) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(938,2732) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(938,2732) = ( 938 × 2732 ) / 2
LCM(938,2732) = 2562616 / 2
LCM(938,2732) = 1281308
