Lets's calculate LCM of 984,9555
3 | 984, 9555 |
328, 3185 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 328 x 3185 = 3134040
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/3134040
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6238/984,7914/9555 is 2/3134040
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 984,9555 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(984,9555) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(984,9555) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(984,9555) = ( 984 × 9555 ) / 3
LCM(984,9555) = 9402120 / 3
LCM(984,9555) = 3134040
