So the greatest common factor 511,474 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 477,546
3 | 477, 546 |
159, 182 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 159 x 182 = 86814
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/86814
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 511/477,474/546 is 1/86814
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 477,546 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(477,546) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(477,546) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(477,546) = ( 477 × 546 ) / 3
LCM(477,546) = 260442 / 3
LCM(477,546) = 86814
