Lets's calculate LCM of 429,290
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 124410
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/124410
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2350/429,4694/290 is 2/124410
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 429,290 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(429,290) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(429,290) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(429,290) = ( 429 × 290 ) / 1
LCM(429,290) = 124410 / 1
LCM(429,290) = 124410
