Lets's calculate LCM of 774,947
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 732978
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/732978
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4522/774,4462/947 is 2/732978
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 774,947 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(774,947) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(774,947) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(774,947) = ( 774 × 947 ) / 1
LCM(774,947) = 732978 / 1
LCM(774,947) = 732978
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
