So the greatest common factor 561,6936 is 51.
Lets's calculate LCM of 494,110
2 | 494, 110 |
247, 55 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 247 x 55 = 27170
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 51/27170
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 561/494,6936/110 is 51/27170
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 494,110 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(494,110) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(494,110) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(494,110) = ( 494 × 110 ) / 2
LCM(494,110) = 54340 / 2
LCM(494,110) = 27170
