Lets's calculate LCM of 242,679
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 164318
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 9/164318
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7605/242,7461/679 is 9/164318
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 242,679 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(242,679) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(242,679) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(242,679) = ( 242 × 679 ) / 1
LCM(242,679) = 164318 / 1
LCM(242,679) = 164318
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
