Lets's calculate LCM of 388,753
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 292164
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/292164
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 970/388,5526/753 is 2/292164
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 388,753 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(388,753) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(388,753) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(388,753) = ( 388 × 753 ) / 1
LCM(388,753) = 292164 / 1
LCM(388,753) = 292164
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
