So the greatest common factor 534,856 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 465,773
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 359445
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/359445
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 534/465,856/773 is 2/359445
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 465,773 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(465,773) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(465,773) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(465,773) = ( 465 × 773 ) / 1
LCM(465,773) = 359445 / 1
LCM(465,773) = 359445
