Lets's calculate LCM of 358,660
2 | 358, 660 |
179, 330 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 179 x 330 = 118140
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 41/118140
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 902/358,9717/660 is 41/118140
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 358,660 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(358,660) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(358,660) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(358,660) = ( 358 × 660 ) / 2
LCM(358,660) = 236280 / 2
LCM(358,660) = 118140
