Lets's calculate LCM of 399,254
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 101346
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/101346
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 814/399,502/254 is 2/101346
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 399,254 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(399,254) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(399,254) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(399,254) = ( 399 × 254 ) / 1
LCM(399,254) = 101346 / 1
LCM(399,254) = 101346
