Lets's calculate LCM of 475,741
19 | 475, 741 |
25, 39 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 19 x 25 x 39 = 18525
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/18525
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6698/475,1945/741 is 1/18525
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 475,741 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(475,741) = 19
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(475,741) x common factors =19 x 1 = 19
LCM(475,741) = ( 475 × 741 ) / 19
LCM(475,741) = 351975 / 19
LCM(475,741) = 18525
