Lets's calculate LCM of 606,3746
2 | 606, 3746 |
303, 1873 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 303 x 1873 = 1135038
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1135038
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5960/606,5673/3746 is 1/1135038
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 606,3746 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(606,3746) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(606,3746) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(606,3746) = ( 606 × 3746 ) / 2
LCM(606,3746) = 2270076 / 2
LCM(606,3746) = 1135038
