Lets's calculate LCM of 408,402
2 | 408, 402 |
3 | 204, 201 |
68, 67 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 68 x 67 = 27336
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/27336
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 692/408,2778/402 is 2/27336
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 408,402 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(408,402) = 6
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(408,402) x common factors =6 x 1 = 6
LCM(408,402) = ( 408 × 402 ) / 6
LCM(408,402) = 164016 / 6
LCM(408,402) = 27336
