So the greatest common factor 6902,1132 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 254,9802
2 | 254, 9802 |
127, 4901 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 127 x 4901 = 1244854
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/1244854
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6902/254,1132/9802 is 2/1244854
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 254,9802 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(254,9802) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(254,9802) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(254,9802) = ( 254 × 9802 ) / 2
LCM(254,9802) = 2489708 / 2
LCM(254,9802) = 1244854
