Lets's calculate LCM of 619,962
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 595478
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/595478
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 966/619,1336/962 is 2/595478
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 619,962 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(619,962) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(619,962) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(619,962) = ( 619 × 962 ) / 1
LCM(619,962) = 595478 / 1
LCM(619,962) = 595478
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
