So the greatest common factor 697,205 is 41.
Lets's calculate LCM of 28,5314
| 2 | 28, 5314 |
| 14, 2657 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 14 x 2657 = 74396
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 41/74396
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 697/28,205/5314 is 41/74396
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 28,5314 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(28,5314) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(28,5314) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(28,5314) = ( 28 × 5314 ) / 2
LCM(28,5314) = 148792 / 2
LCM(28,5314) = 74396
