Lets's calculate LCM of 877,748
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 655996
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/655996
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5415/877,8757/748 is 3/655996
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 877,748 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(877,748) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(877,748) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(877,748) = ( 877 × 748 ) / 1
LCM(877,748) = 655996 / 1
LCM(877,748) = 655996
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
