Lets's calculate LCM of 882,871
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 768222
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/768222
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 370/882,8666/871 is 2/768222
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 882,871 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(882,871) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(882,871) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(882,871) = ( 882 × 871 ) / 1
LCM(882,871) = 768222 / 1
LCM(882,871) = 768222
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
