Lets's calculate LCM of 602,539
7 | 602, 539 |
86, 77 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 7 x 86 x 77 = 46354
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/46354
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 916/602,243/539 is 1/46354
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 602,539 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(602,539) = 7
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(602,539) x common factors =7 x 1 = 7
LCM(602,539) = ( 602 × 539 ) / 7
LCM(602,539) = 324478 / 7
LCM(602,539) = 46354
