Lets's calculate LCM of 460,913
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 419980
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/419980
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 954/460,3687/913 is 3/419980
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 460,913 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(460,913) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(460,913) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(460,913) = ( 460 × 913 ) / 1
LCM(460,913) = 419980 / 1
LCM(460,913) = 419980
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
