Lets's calculate LCM of 842,838
2 | 842, 838 |
421, 419 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 421 x 419 = 352798
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/352798
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9746/842,2715/838 is 1/352798
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 842,838 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(842,838) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(842,838) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(842,838) = ( 842 × 838 ) / 2
LCM(842,838) = 705596 / 2
LCM(842,838) = 352798
