Lets's calculate LCM of 756,509
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 384804
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/384804
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6958/756,9392/509 is 2/384804
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 756,509 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(756,509) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(756,509) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(756,509) = ( 756 × 509 ) / 1
LCM(756,509) = 384804 / 1
LCM(756,509) = 384804
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
