Lets's calculate LCM of 620,944
2 | 620, 944 |
2 | 310, 472 |
155, 236 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 155 x 236 = 146320
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/146320
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6197/620,8700/944 is 1/146320
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 620,944 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(620,944) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(620,944) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(620,944) = ( 620 × 944 ) / 4
LCM(620,944) = 585280 / 4
LCM(620,944) = 146320
