Lets's calculate LCM of 647,477
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 308619
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/308619
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3846/647,5656/477 is 2/308619
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 647,477 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(647,477) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(647,477) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(647,477) = ( 647 × 477 ) / 1
LCM(647,477) = 308619 / 1
LCM(647,477) = 308619
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
