Lets's calculate LCM of 69,2298
3 | 69, 2298 |
23, 766 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 23 x 766 = 52854
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 7/52854
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 749/69,280/2298 is 7/52854
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 69,2298 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(69,2298) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(69,2298) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(69,2298) = ( 69 × 2298 ) / 3
LCM(69,2298) = 158562 / 3
LCM(69,2298) = 52854
