Lets's calculate LCM of 689,582
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 400998
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/400998
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2004/689,7731/582 is 3/400998
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 689,582 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(689,582) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(689,582) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(689,582) = ( 689 × 582 ) / 1
LCM(689,582) = 400998 / 1
LCM(689,582) = 400998
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
