So the greatest common factor 767,172 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 670,968
2 | 670, 968 |
335, 484 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 335 x 484 = 324280
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/324280
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 767/670,172/968 is 1/324280
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 670,968 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(670,968) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(670,968) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(670,968) = ( 670 × 968 ) / 2
LCM(670,968) = 648560 / 2
LCM(670,968) = 324280
