Lets's calculate LCM of 534,3474
2 | 534, 3474 |
3 | 267, 1737 |
89, 579 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 89 x 579 = 309186
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/309186
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9973/534,2396/3474 is 1/309186
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 534,3474 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(534,3474) = 6
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(534,3474) x common factors =6 x 1 = 6
LCM(534,3474) = ( 534 × 3474 ) / 6
LCM(534,3474) = 1855116 / 6
LCM(534,3474) = 309186
