Lets's calculate LCM of 658,533
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 350714
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/350714
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1184/658,4254/533 is 2/350714
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 658,533 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(658,533) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(658,533) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(658,533) = ( 658 × 533 ) / 1
LCM(658,533) = 350714 / 1
LCM(658,533) = 350714
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
