Lets's calculate LCM of 422,1960
2 | 422, 1960 |
211, 980 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 211 x 980 = 413560
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/413560
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9738/422,6929/1960 is 1/413560
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 422,1960 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(422,1960) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(422,1960) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(422,1960) = ( 422 × 1960 ) / 2
LCM(422,1960) = 827120 / 2
LCM(422,1960) = 413560
