Lets's calculate LCM of 140,383
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 53620
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/53620
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8679/140,6549/383 is 3/53620
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 140,383 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(140,383) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(140,383) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(140,383) = ( 140 × 383 ) / 1
LCM(140,383) = 53620 / 1
LCM(140,383) = 53620
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
