Lets's calculate LCM of 985,717
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 706245
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/706245
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5106/985,2318/717 is 2/706245
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 985,717 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(985,717) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(985,717) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(985,717) = ( 985 × 717 ) / 1
LCM(985,717) = 706245 / 1
LCM(985,717) = 706245
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
