So the greatest common factor 3701,8981 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 334,312
2 | 334, 312 |
167, 156 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 167 x 156 = 52104
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/52104
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3701/334,8981/312 is 1/52104
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 334,312 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(334,312) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(334,312) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(334,312) = ( 334 × 312 ) / 2
LCM(334,312) = 104208 / 2
LCM(334,312) = 52104
