Lets's calculate LCM of 442,598
2 | 442, 598 |
13 | 221, 299 |
17, 23 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 13 x 17 x 23 = 10166
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/10166
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9603/442,8902/598 is 1/10166
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 442,598 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(442,598) = 26
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(442,598) x common factors =26 x 1 = 26
LCM(442,598) = ( 442 × 598 ) / 26
LCM(442,598) = 264316 / 26
LCM(442,598) = 10166
