Lets's calculate LCM of 498,658
2 | 498, 658 |
249, 329 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 249 x 329 = 163842
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/163842
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 753/498,345/658 is 3/163842
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 498,658 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(498,658) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(498,658) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(498,658) = ( 498 × 658 ) / 2
LCM(498,658) = 327684 / 2
LCM(498,658) = 163842
