We found the factors 262,802 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 262,802 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 474,681
3 | 474, 681 |
158, 227 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 158 x 227 = 107598
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/107598
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 262/474,802/681 is 2/107598
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 474,681 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(474,681) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(474,681) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(474,681) = ( 474 × 681 ) / 3
LCM(474,681) = 322794 / 3
LCM(474,681) = 107598
