So the greatest common factor 6172,2704 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 98,822
2 | 98, 822 |
49, 411 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 49 x 411 = 40278
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/40278
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6172/98,2704/822 is 4/40278
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 98,822 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(98,822) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(98,822) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(98,822) = ( 98 × 822 ) / 2
LCM(98,822) = 80556 / 2
LCM(98,822) = 40278
