So the greatest common factor 903,858 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 45,2954
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 132930
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/132930
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 903/45,858/2954 is 3/132930
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 45,2954 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(45,2954) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(45,2954) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(45,2954) = ( 45 × 2954 ) / 1
LCM(45,2954) = 132930 / 1
LCM(45,2954) = 132930
