So the greatest common factor 6970,9462 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 420,9010
2 | 420, 9010 |
5 | 210, 4505 |
42, 901 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 5 x 42 x 901 = 378420
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/378420
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6970/420,9462/9010 is 2/378420
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 420,9010 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(420,9010) = 10
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(420,9010) x common factors =10 x 1 = 10
LCM(420,9010) = ( 420 × 9010 ) / 10
LCM(420,9010) = 3784200 / 10
LCM(420,9010) = 378420
