Lets's calculate LCM of 406,697
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 282982
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/282982
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7944/406,9676/697 is 4/282982
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 406,697 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(406,697) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(406,697) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(406,697) = ( 406 × 697 ) / 1
LCM(406,697) = 282982 / 1
LCM(406,697) = 282982
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
