Lets's calculate LCM of 614,8118
2 | 614, 8118 |
307, 4059 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 307 x 4059 = 2492226
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/2492226
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3986/614,6993/8118 is 1/2492226
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 614,8118 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(614,8118) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(614,8118) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(614,8118) = ( 614 × 8118 ) / 2
LCM(614,8118) = 4984452 / 2
LCM(614,8118) = 2492226
