So the greatest common factor 789,6828 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 970,476
2 | 970, 476 |
485, 238 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 485 x 238 = 230860
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/230860
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 789/970,6828/476 is 3/230860
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 970,476 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(970,476) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(970,476) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(970,476) = ( 970 × 476 ) / 2
LCM(970,476) = 461720 / 2
LCM(970,476) = 230860
