2 | 466, 2974 |
233, 1487 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 233 x 1487 = 692942
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/692942
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8686/466,1067/2974 is 1/692942
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 466,2974 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(466,2974) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(466,2974) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(466,2974) = ( 466 × 2974 ) / 2
LCM(466,2974) = 1385884 / 2
LCM(466,2974) = 692942
