Lets's calculate LCM of 242,7074
2 | 242, 7074 |
121, 3537 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 121 x 3537 = 855954
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/855954
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9344/242,1489/7074 is 1/855954
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 242,7074 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(242,7074) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(242,7074) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(242,7074) = ( 242 × 7074 ) / 2
LCM(242,7074) = 1711908 / 2
LCM(242,7074) = 855954
