Lets's calculate LCM of 447,1908
3 | 447, 1908 |
149, 636 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 149 x 636 = 284292
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/284292
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 950/447,2834/1908 is 2/284292
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 447,1908 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(447,1908) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(447,1908) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(447,1908) = ( 447 × 1908 ) / 3
LCM(447,1908) = 852876 / 3
LCM(447,1908) = 284292
