Lets's calculate LCM of 894,406
2 | 894, 406 |
447, 203 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 447 x 203 = 181482
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/181482
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4154/894,1172/406 is 2/181482
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 894,406 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(894,406) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(894,406) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(894,406) = ( 894 × 406 ) / 2
LCM(894,406) = 362964 / 2
LCM(894,406) = 181482
