Lets's calculate LCM of 926,679
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 628754
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/628754
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2918/926,5118/679 is 2/628754
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 926,679 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(926,679) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(926,679) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(926,679) = ( 926 × 679 ) / 1
LCM(926,679) = 628754 / 1
LCM(926,679) = 628754
