So the greatest common factor 820,228 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 964,294
2 | 964, 294 |
482, 147 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 482 x 147 = 141708
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/141708
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 820/964,228/294 is 4/141708
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 964,294 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(964,294) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(964,294) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(964,294) = ( 964 × 294 ) / 2
LCM(964,294) = 283416 / 2
LCM(964,294) = 141708
