We found the factors 344,9761 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 344,9761 is 43.
Lets's calculate LCM of 294,370
2 | 294, 370 |
147, 185 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 147 x 185 = 54390
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 43/54390
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 344/294,9761/370 is 43/54390
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 294,370 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(294,370) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(294,370) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(294,370) = ( 294 × 370 ) / 2
LCM(294,370) = 108780 / 2
LCM(294,370) = 54390
