Lets's calculate LCM of 274,350
2 | 274, 350 |
137, 175 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 137 x 175 = 47950
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/47950
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5857/274,1197/350 is 1/47950
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 274,350 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(274,350) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(274,350) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(274,350) = ( 274 × 350 ) / 2
LCM(274,350) = 95900 / 2
LCM(274,350) = 47950
