Lets's calculate LCM of 674,746
2 | 674, 746 |
337, 373 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 337 x 373 = 251402
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/251402
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 158/674,819/746 is 1/251402
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 674,746 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(674,746) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(674,746) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(674,746) = ( 674 × 746 ) / 2
LCM(674,746) = 502804 / 2
LCM(674,746) = 251402
