Lets's calculate LCM of 631,949
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 598819
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 17/598819
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 136/631,969/949 is 17/598819
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 631,949 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(631,949) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(631,949) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(631,949) = ( 631 × 949 ) / 1
LCM(631,949) = 598819 / 1
LCM(631,949) = 598819
