Lets's calculate LCM of 958,845
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 809510
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/809510
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 646/958,686/845 is 2/809510
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 958,845 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(958,845) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(958,845) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(958,845) = ( 958 × 845 ) / 1
LCM(958,845) = 809510 / 1
LCM(958,845) = 809510
