Lets's calculate LCM of 649,981
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 636669
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/636669
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4797/649,3561/981 is 3/636669
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 649,981 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(649,981) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(649,981) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(649,981) = ( 649 × 981 ) / 1
LCM(649,981) = 636669 / 1
LCM(649,981) = 636669
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
