We found the factors 906,3901 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 906,3901 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 422,940
2 | 422, 940 |
211, 470 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 211 x 470 = 198340
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/198340
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 906/422,3901/940 is 1/198340
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 422,940 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(422,940) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(422,940) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(422,940) = ( 422 × 940 ) / 2
LCM(422,940) = 396680 / 2
LCM(422,940) = 198340
