We found the factors 8948,2799 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 8948,2799 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 214,294
2 | 214, 294 |
107, 147 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 107 x 147 = 31458
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/31458
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8948/214,2799/294 is 1/31458
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 214,294 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(214,294) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(214,294) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(214,294) = ( 214 × 294 ) / 2
LCM(214,294) = 62916 / 2
LCM(214,294) = 31458
