Lets's calculate LCM of 950,2974
2 | 950, 2974 |
475, 1487 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 475 x 1487 = 1412650
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1412650
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8960/950,3963/2974 is 1/1412650
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 950,2974 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(950,2974) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(950,2974) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(950,2974) = ( 950 × 2974 ) / 2
LCM(950,2974) = 2825300 / 2
LCM(950,2974) = 1412650
