So the greatest common factor 2451,3321 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 88,698
2 | 88, 698 |
44, 349 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 44 x 349 = 30712
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/30712
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2451/88,3321/698 is 3/30712
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 88,698 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(88,698) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(88,698) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(88,698) = ( 88 × 698 ) / 2
LCM(88,698) = 61424 / 2
LCM(88,698) = 30712
