Lets's calculate LCM of 106,946
2 | 106, 946 |
53, 473 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 53 x 473 = 50138
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 20/50138
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5920/106,6700/946 is 20/50138
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 106,946 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(106,946) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(106,946) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(106,946) = ( 106 × 946 ) / 2
LCM(106,946) = 100276 / 2
LCM(106,946) = 50138
