So the greatest common factor 919,147 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 38,742
2 | 38, 742 |
19, 371 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 19 x 371 = 14098
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/14098
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 919/38,147/742 is 1/14098
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 38,742 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(38,742) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(38,742) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(38,742) = ( 38 × 742 ) / 2
LCM(38,742) = 28196 / 2
LCM(38,742) = 14098
