We found the factors 777,1960 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 777,1960 is 7.
Lets's calculate LCM of 488,891
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 434808
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 7/434808
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 777/488,1960/891 is 7/434808
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 488,891 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(488,891) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(488,891) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(488,891) = ( 488 × 891 ) / 1
LCM(488,891) = 434808 / 1
LCM(488,891) = 434808
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
