Lets's calculate LCM of 469,569
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 266861
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/266861
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3536/469,9950/569 is 2/266861
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 469,569 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(469,569) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(469,569) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(469,569) = ( 469 × 569 ) / 1
LCM(469,569) = 266861 / 1
LCM(469,569) = 266861
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
