Lets's calculate LCM of 230,9306
2 | 230, 9306 |
115, 4653 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 115 x 4653 = 1070190
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/1070190
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1466/230,9942/9306 is 2/1070190
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 230,9306 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(230,9306) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(230,9306) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(230,9306) = ( 230 × 9306 ) / 2
LCM(230,9306) = 2140380 / 2
LCM(230,9306) = 1070190
