So the greatest common factor 780,846 is 6.
Lets's calculate LCM of 852,746
2 | 852, 746 |
426, 373 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 426 x 373 = 317796
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 6/317796
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 780/852,846/746 is 6/317796
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 852,746 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(852,746) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(852,746) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(852,746) = ( 852 × 746 ) / 2
LCM(852,746) = 635592 / 2
LCM(852,746) = 317796
