Lets's calculate LCM of 541,857
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 463637
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/463637
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5058/541,5876/857 is 2/463637
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 541,857 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(541,857) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(541,857) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(541,857) = ( 541 × 857 ) / 1
LCM(541,857) = 463637 / 1
LCM(541,857) = 463637
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
