Lets's calculate LCM of 948,842
2 | 948, 842 |
474, 421 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 474 x 421 = 399108
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/399108
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 286/948,7049/842 is 1/399108
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 948,842 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(948,842) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(948,842) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(948,842) = ( 948 × 842 ) / 2
LCM(948,842) = 798216 / 2
LCM(948,842) = 399108
