2 | 274, 898 |
137, 449 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 137 x 449 = 123026
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/123026
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 758/274,2546/898 is 2/123026
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 274,898 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(274,898) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(274,898) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(274,898) = ( 274 × 898 ) / 2
LCM(274,898) = 246052 / 2
LCM(274,898) = 123026
