Lets's calculate LCM of 497,890
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 442330
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 6/442330
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8688/497,2826/890 is 6/442330
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 497,890 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(497,890) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(497,890) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(497,890) = ( 497 × 890 ) / 1
LCM(497,890) = 442330 / 1
LCM(497,890) = 442330
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
