Lets's calculate LCM of 394,2974
2 | 394, 2974 |
197, 1487 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 197 x 1487 = 585878
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/585878
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3110/394,1286/2974 is 2/585878
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 394,2974 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(394,2974) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(394,2974) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(394,2974) = ( 394 × 2974 ) / 2
LCM(394,2974) = 1171756 / 2
LCM(394,2974) = 585878
