Lets's calculate LCM of 506,978
2 | 506, 978 |
253, 489 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 253 x 489 = 247434
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 11/247434
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 935/506,1254/978 is 11/247434
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 506,978 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(506,978) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(506,978) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(506,978) = ( 506 × 978 ) / 2
LCM(506,978) = 494868 / 2
LCM(506,978) = 247434
