Lets's calculate LCM of 470,967
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 454490
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 7/454490
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7609/470,3948/967 is 7/454490
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 470,967 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(470,967) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(470,967) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(470,967) = ( 470 × 967 ) / 1
LCM(470,967) = 454490 / 1
LCM(470,967) = 454490
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
