So the greatest common factor 534,896 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 841,314
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 264074
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/264074
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 534/841,896/314 is 2/264074
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 841,314 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(841,314) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(841,314) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(841,314) = ( 841 × 314 ) / 1
LCM(841,314) = 264074 / 1
LCM(841,314) = 264074
