Lets's calculate LCM of 848,706
2 | 848, 706 |
424, 353 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 424 x 353 = 299344
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 103/299344
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 103/848,3502/706 is 103/299344
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 848,706 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(848,706) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(848,706) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(848,706) = ( 848 × 706 ) / 2
LCM(848,706) = 598688 / 2
LCM(848,706) = 299344
