So the greatest common factor 9968,6141 is 89.
Lets's calculate LCM of 982,280
2 | 982, 280 |
491, 140 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 491 x 140 = 137480
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 89/137480
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9968/982,6141/280 is 89/137480
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 982,280 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(982,280) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(982,280) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(982,280) = ( 982 × 280 ) / 2
LCM(982,280) = 274960 / 2
LCM(982,280) = 137480
