Lets's calculate LCM of 426,889
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 378714
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/378714
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3135/426,5905/889 is 5/378714
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 426,889 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(426,889) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(426,889) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(426,889) = ( 426 × 889 ) / 1
LCM(426,889) = 378714 / 1
LCM(426,889) = 378714
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
