Lets's calculate LCM of 782,548
2 | 782, 548 |
391, 274 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 391 x 274 = 214268
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/214268
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 854/782,949/548 is 1/214268
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 782,548 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(782,548) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(782,548) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(782,548) = ( 782 × 548 ) / 2
LCM(782,548) = 428536 / 2
LCM(782,548) = 214268
