So the greatest common factor 2060,7974 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 138,861
3 | 138, 861 |
46, 287 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 46 x 287 = 39606
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/39606
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2060/138,7974/861 is 2/39606
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 138,861 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(138,861) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(138,861) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(138,861) = ( 138 × 861 ) / 3
LCM(138,861) = 118818 / 3
LCM(138,861) = 39606
