Lets's calculate LCM of 865,692
173 | 865, 692 |
5, 4 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 173 x 5 x 4 = 3460
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/3460
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2221/865,9963/692 is 1/3460
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 865,692 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(865,692) = 173
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(865,692) x common factors =173 x 1 = 173
LCM(865,692) = ( 865 × 692 ) / 173
LCM(865,692) = 598580 / 173
LCM(865,692) = 3460
