Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 6931,8934 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 6931,8934 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 685,740
5 | 685, 740 |
137, 148 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 5 x 137 x 148 = 101380
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/101380
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6931/685,8934/740 is 1/101380
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 685,740 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(685,740) = 5
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(685,740) x common factors =5 x 1 = 5
LCM(685,740) = ( 685 × 740 ) / 5
LCM(685,740) = 506900 / 5
LCM(685,740) = 101380
