Lets's calculate LCM of 530,858
2 | 530, 858 |
265, 429 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 265 x 429 = 227370
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/227370
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6860/530,6736/858 is 4/227370
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 530,858 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(530,858) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(530,858) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(530,858) = ( 530 × 858 ) / 2
LCM(530,858) = 454740 / 2
LCM(530,858) = 227370
