Lets's calculate LCM of 837,748
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 626076
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/626076
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4870/837,3768/748 is 2/626076
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 837,748 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(837,748) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(837,748) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(837,748) = ( 837 × 748 ) / 1
LCM(837,748) = 626076 / 1
LCM(837,748) = 626076
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
