Lets's calculate LCM of 838,653
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 547214
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/547214
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5236/838,9018/653 is 2/547214
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 838,653 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(838,653) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(838,653) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(838,653) = ( 838 × 653 ) / 1
LCM(838,653) = 547214 / 1
LCM(838,653) = 547214
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
