2 | 406, 7884 |
203, 3942 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 203 x 3942 = 1600452
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1600452
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4949/406,2999/7884 is 1/1600452
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 406,7884 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(406,7884) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(406,7884) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(406,7884) = ( 406 × 7884 ) / 2
LCM(406,7884) = 3200904 / 2
LCM(406,7884) = 1600452
