Lets's calculate LCM of 654,886
2 | 654, 886 |
327, 443 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 327 x 443 = 289722
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/289722
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5298/654,9579/886 is 3/289722
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 654,886 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(654,886) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(654,886) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(654,886) = ( 654 × 886 ) / 2
LCM(654,886) = 579444 / 2
LCM(654,886) = 289722
