Lets's calculate LCM of 537,769
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 412953
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/412953
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 340/537,9635/769 is 5/412953
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 537,769 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(537,769) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(537,769) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(537,769) = ( 537 × 769 ) / 1
LCM(537,769) = 412953 / 1
LCM(537,769) = 412953
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
