So the greatest common factor 948,860 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 364,554
2 | 364, 554 |
182, 277 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 182 x 277 = 100828
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/100828
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 948/364,860/554 is 4/100828
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 364,554 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(364,554) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(364,554) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(364,554) = ( 364 × 554 ) / 2
LCM(364,554) = 201656 / 2
LCM(364,554) = 100828
