Lets's calculate LCM of 676,676
| 2 | 676, 676 |
| 2 | 338, 338 |
| 13 | 169, 169 |
| 13 | 13, 13 |
| 1, 1 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 13 x 13 x 1 x 1 = 676
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 114/676
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 228/676,3078/676 is 114/676
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 676,676 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(676,676) = 676
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(676,676) x common factors =676 x 1 = 676
LCM(676,676) = ( 676 × 676 ) / 676
LCM(676,676) = 456976 / 676
LCM(676,676) = 676
