So the greatest common factor 715,546 is 13.
Lets's calculate LCM of 34,382
2 | 34, 382 |
17, 191 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 17 x 191 = 6494
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 13/6494
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 715/34,546/382 is 13/6494
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 34,382 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(34,382) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(34,382) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(34,382) = ( 34 × 382 ) / 2
LCM(34,382) = 12988 / 2
LCM(34,382) = 6494
