Lets's calculate LCM of 689,405
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 279045
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/279045
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2698/689,4016/405 is 2/279045
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 689,405 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(689,405) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(689,405) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(689,405) = ( 689 × 405 ) / 1
LCM(689,405) = 279045 / 1
LCM(689,405) = 279045
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
