Lets's calculate LCM of 334,982
2 | 334, 982 |
167, 491 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 167 x 491 = 163994
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/163994
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9996/334,2869/982 is 1/163994
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 334,982 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(334,982) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(334,982) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(334,982) = ( 334 × 982 ) / 2
LCM(334,982) = 327988 / 2
LCM(334,982) = 163994
