Lets's calculate LCM of 384,682
2 | 384, 682 |
192, 341 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 192 x 341 = 130944
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 119/130944
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7973/384,5474/682 is 119/130944
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 384,682 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(384,682) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(384,682) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(384,682) = ( 384 × 682 ) / 2
LCM(384,682) = 261888 / 2
LCM(384,682) = 130944
