Lets's calculate LCM of 294,474
2 | 294, 474 |
3 | 147, 237 |
49, 79 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 49 x 79 = 23226
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/23226
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 385/294,963/474 is 1/23226
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 294,474 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(294,474) = 6
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(294,474) x common factors =6 x 1 = 6
LCM(294,474) = ( 294 × 474 ) / 6
LCM(294,474) = 139356 / 6
LCM(294,474) = 23226
