So the greatest common factor 602,2988 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 602,2322
2 | 602, 2322 |
43 | 301, 1161 |
7, 27 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 43 x 7 x 27 = 16254
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/16254
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 602/602,2988/2322 is 2/16254
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 602,2322 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(602,2322) = 86
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(602,2322) x common factors =86 x 1 = 86
LCM(602,2322) = ( 602 × 2322 ) / 86
LCM(602,2322) = 1397844 / 86
LCM(602,2322) = 16254
