Lets's calculate LCM of 62,7783
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 482546
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/482546
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 260/62,888/7783 is 4/482546
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 62,7783 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(62,7783) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(62,7783) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(62,7783) = ( 62 × 7783 ) / 1
LCM(62,7783) = 482546 / 1
LCM(62,7783) = 482546
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
