Lets's calculate LCM of 474,8889
3 | 474, 8889 |
158, 2963 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 158 x 2963 = 1404462
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1404462
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8981/474,8131/8889 is 1/1404462
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 474,8889 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(474,8889) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(474,8889) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(474,8889) = ( 474 × 8889 ) / 3
LCM(474,8889) = 4213386 / 3
LCM(474,8889) = 1404462
