So the greatest common factor 1459,2701 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 470,1656
2 | 470, 1656 |
235, 828 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 235 x 828 = 389160
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/389160
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1459/470,2701/1656 is 1/389160
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 470,1656 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(470,1656) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(470,1656) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(470,1656) = ( 470 × 1656 ) / 2
LCM(470,1656) = 778320 / 2
LCM(470,1656) = 389160
