So the greatest common factor 3670,8668 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 34,298
2 | 34, 298 |
17, 149 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 17 x 149 = 5066
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/5066
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3670/34,8668/298 is 2/5066
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 34,298 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(34,298) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(34,298) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(34,298) = ( 34 × 298 ) / 2
LCM(34,298) = 10132 / 2
LCM(34,298) = 5066
