:1,2,947,1894
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 6898,1894 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 6898,1894 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 480,877
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 420960
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/420960
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6898/480,1894/877 is 2/420960
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 480,877 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(480,877) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(480,877) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(480,877) = ( 480 × 877 ) / 1
LCM(480,877) = 420960 / 1
LCM(480,877) = 420960
