Lets's calculate LCM of 381,2799
3 | 381, 2799 |
127, 933 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 127 x 933 = 355473
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/355473
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5950/381,2602/2799 is 2/355473
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 381,2799 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(381,2799) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(381,2799) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(381,2799) = ( 381 × 2799 ) / 3
LCM(381,2799) = 1066419 / 3
LCM(381,2799) = 355473
