So the greatest common factor 865,475 is 5.
Lets's calculate LCM of 589,682
31 | 589, 682 |
19, 22 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 31 x 19 x 22 = 12958
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/12958
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 865/589,475/682 is 5/12958
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 589,682 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(589,682) = 31
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(589,682) x common factors =31 x 1 = 31
LCM(589,682) = ( 589 × 682 ) / 31
LCM(589,682) = 401698 / 31
LCM(589,682) = 12958
