Lets's calculate LCM of 706,656
2 | 706, 656 |
353, 328 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 353 x 328 = 231568
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/231568
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2911/706,5898/656 is 1/231568
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 706,656 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(706,656) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(706,656) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(706,656) = ( 706 × 656 ) / 2
LCM(706,656) = 463136 / 2
LCM(706,656) = 231568
