2 | 926, 2996 |
463, 1498 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 463 x 1498 = 1387148
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1387148
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7339/926,5446/2996 is 1/1387148
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 926,2996 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(926,2996) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(926,2996) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(926,2996) = ( 926 × 2996 ) / 2
LCM(926,2996) = 2774296 / 2
LCM(926,2996) = 1387148
