So the greatest common factor 777,501 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 748,891
11 | 748, 891 |
68, 81 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 11 x 68 x 81 = 60588
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/60588
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 777/748,501/891 is 3/60588
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 748,891 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(748,891) = 11
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(748,891) x common factors =11 x 1 = 11
LCM(748,891) = ( 748 × 891 ) / 11
LCM(748,891) = 666468 / 11
LCM(748,891) = 60588
