So the greatest common factor 385,690 is 5.
Lets's calculate LCM of 842,830
2 | 842, 830 |
421, 415 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 421 x 415 = 349430
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/349430
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 385/842,690/830 is 5/349430
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 842,830 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(842,830) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(842,830) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(842,830) = ( 842 × 830 ) / 2
LCM(842,830) = 698860 / 2
LCM(842,830) = 349430
