So the greatest common factor 6884,9898 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 27,402
3 | 27, 402 |
9, 134 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 9 x 134 = 3618
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/3618
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6884/27,9898/402 is 2/3618
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 27,402 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(27,402) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(27,402) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(27,402) = ( 27 × 402 ) / 3
LCM(27,402) = 10854 / 3
LCM(27,402) = 3618
