Lets's calculate LCM of 686,930
2 | 686, 930 |
343, 465 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 343 x 465 = 318990
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/318990
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3568/686,7371/930 is 1/318990
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 686,930 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(686,930) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(686,930) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(686,930) = ( 686 × 930 ) / 2
LCM(686,930) = 637980 / 2
LCM(686,930) = 318990
