Lets's calculate LCM of 382,949
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 362518
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/362518
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5598/382,1904/949 is 2/362518
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 382,949 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(382,949) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(382,949) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(382,949) = ( 382 × 949 ) / 1
LCM(382,949) = 362518 / 1
LCM(382,949) = 362518
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
