So the greatest common factor 280,716 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 793,247
13 | 793, 247 |
61, 19 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 13 x 61 x 19 = 15067
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/15067
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 280/793,716/247 is 4/15067
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 793,247 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(793,247) = 13
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(793,247) x common factors =13 x 1 = 13
LCM(793,247) = ( 793 × 247 ) / 13
LCM(793,247) = 195871 / 13
LCM(793,247) = 15067
