Lets's calculate LCM of 920,3214
2 | 920, 3214 |
460, 1607 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 460 x 1607 = 1478440
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/1478440
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6291/920,2850/3214 is 3/1478440
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 920,3214 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(920,3214) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(920,3214) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(920,3214) = ( 920 × 3214 ) / 2
LCM(920,3214) = 2956880 / 2
LCM(920,3214) = 1478440
