Lets's calculate LCM of 532,885
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 470820
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/470820
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6530/532,1564/885 is 2/470820
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 532,885 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(532,885) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(532,885) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(532,885) = ( 532 × 885 ) / 1
LCM(532,885) = 470820 / 1
LCM(532,885) = 470820
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
