So the greatest common factor 510,726 is 6.
Lets's calculate LCM of 859,370
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 317830
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 6/317830
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 510/859,726/370 is 6/317830
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 859,370 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(859,370) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(859,370) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(859,370) = ( 859 × 370 ) / 1
LCM(859,370) = 317830 / 1
LCM(859,370) = 317830
