Lets's calculate LCM of 469,802
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 376138
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 6/376138
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7878/469,9738/802 is 6/376138
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 469,802 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(469,802) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(469,802) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(469,802) = ( 469 × 802 ) / 1
LCM(469,802) = 376138 / 1
LCM(469,802) = 376138
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
