So the greatest common factor 847,742 is 7.
Lets's calculate LCM of 626,545
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 341170
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 7/341170
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 847/626,742/545 is 7/341170
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 626,545 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(626,545) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(626,545) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(626,545) = ( 626 × 545 ) / 1
LCM(626,545) = 341170 / 1
LCM(626,545) = 341170
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
