Lets's calculate LCM of 868,251
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 217868
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/217868
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5682/868,7658/251 is 2/217868
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 868,251 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(868,251) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(868,251) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(868,251) = ( 868 × 251 ) / 1
LCM(868,251) = 217868 / 1
LCM(868,251) = 217868
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
