Lets's calculate LCM of 289,939
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 271371
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/271371
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5722/289,7684/939 is 2/271371
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 289,939 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(289,939) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(289,939) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(289,939) = ( 289 × 939 ) / 1
LCM(289,939) = 271371 / 1
LCM(289,939) = 271371
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
