So the greatest common factor 600,8055 is 15.
Lets's calculate LCM of 898,636
2 | 898, 636 |
449, 318 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 449 x 318 = 285564
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 15/285564
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 600/898,8055/636 is 15/285564
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 898,636 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(898,636) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(898,636) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(898,636) = ( 898 × 636 ) / 2
LCM(898,636) = 571128 / 2
LCM(898,636) = 285564
