Lets's calculate LCM of 534,595
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 317730
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/317730
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 270/534,8746/595 is 2/317730
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 534,595 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(534,595) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(534,595) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(534,595) = ( 534 × 595 ) / 1
LCM(534,595) = 317730 / 1
LCM(534,595) = 317730
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
