So the greatest common factor 3412,4122 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 804,974
2 | 804, 974 |
402, 487 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 402 x 487 = 391548
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/391548
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3412/804,4122/974 is 2/391548
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 804,974 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(804,974) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(804,974) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(804,974) = ( 804 × 974 ) / 2
LCM(804,974) = 783096 / 2
LCM(804,974) = 391548
