So the greatest common factor 601,3041 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 838,1382
2 | 838, 1382 |
419, 691 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 419 x 691 = 579058
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/579058
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 601/838,3041/1382 is 1/579058
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 838,1382 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(838,1382) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(838,1382) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(838,1382) = ( 838 × 1382 ) / 2
LCM(838,1382) = 1158116 / 2
LCM(838,1382) = 579058
