Lets's calculate LCM of 654,109
109 | 654, 109 |
6, 1 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 109 x 6 x 1 = 654
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/654
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 237/654,728/109 is 1/654
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 654,109 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(654,109) = 109
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(654,109) x common factors =109 x 1 = 109
LCM(654,109) = ( 654 × 109 ) / 109
LCM(654,109) = 71286 / 109
LCM(654,109) = 654
