Lets's calculate LCM of 494,858
2 | 494, 858 |
13 | 247, 429 |
19, 33 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 13 x 19 x 33 = 16302
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/16302
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6701/494,2534/858 is 1/16302
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 494,858 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(494,858) = 26
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(494,858) x common factors =26 x 1 = 26
LCM(494,858) = ( 494 × 858 ) / 26
LCM(494,858) = 423852 / 26
LCM(494,858) = 16302
