Lets's calculate LCM of 477,6894
3 | 477, 6894 |
3 | 159, 2298 |
53, 766 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 3 x 53 x 766 = 365382
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/365382
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9256/477,1974/6894 is 2/365382
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 477,6894 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(477,6894) = 9
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(477,6894) x common factors =9 x 1 = 9
LCM(477,6894) = ( 477 × 6894 ) / 9
LCM(477,6894) = 3288438 / 9
LCM(477,6894) = 365382
