Lets's calculate LCM of 809,389
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 314701
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/314701
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 842/809,9080/389 is 2/314701
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 809,389 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(809,389) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(809,389) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(809,389) = ( 809 × 389 ) / 1
LCM(809,389) = 314701 / 1
LCM(809,389) = 314701
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
