So the greatest common factor 894,303 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 62,8362
2 | 62, 8362 |
31, 4181 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 31 x 4181 = 259222
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/259222
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 894/62,303/8362 is 3/259222
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 62,8362 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(62,8362) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(62,8362) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(62,8362) = ( 62 × 8362 ) / 2
LCM(62,8362) = 518444 / 2
LCM(62,8362) = 259222
