Lets's calculate LCM of 479,600
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 287400
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/287400
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2628/479,3165/600 is 3/287400
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 479,600 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(479,600) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(479,600) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(479,600) = ( 479 × 600 ) / 1
LCM(479,600) = 287400 / 1
LCM(479,600) = 287400
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
