2 | 978, 5460 |
3 | 489, 2730 |
163, 910 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 163 x 910 = 889980
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/889980
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9598/978,1774/5460 is 2/889980
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 978,5460 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(978,5460) = 6
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(978,5460) x common factors =6 x 1 = 6
LCM(978,5460) = ( 978 × 5460 ) / 6
LCM(978,5460) = 5339880 / 6
LCM(978,5460) = 889980
