Lets's calculate LCM of 688,6866
2 | 688, 6866 |
344, 3433 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 344 x 3433 = 2361904
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/2361904
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6981/688,3793/6866 is 1/2361904
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 688,6866 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(688,6866) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(688,6866) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(688,6866) = ( 688 × 6866 ) / 2
LCM(688,6866) = 4723808 / 2
LCM(688,6866) = 2361904
