So the greatest common factor 924,1404 is 12.
Lets's calculate LCM of 286,300
2 | 286, 300 |
143, 150 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 143 x 150 = 42900
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 12/42900
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 924/286,1404/300 is 12/42900
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 286,300 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(286,300) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(286,300) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(286,300) = ( 286 × 300 ) / 2
LCM(286,300) = 85800 / 2
LCM(286,300) = 42900
