Lets's calculate LCM of 980,402
2 | 980, 402 |
490, 201 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 490 x 201 = 196980
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/196980
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7609/980,5969/402 is 1/196980
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 980,402 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(980,402) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(980,402) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(980,402) = ( 980 × 402 ) / 2
LCM(980,402) = 393960 / 2
LCM(980,402) = 196980
