So the greatest common factor 918,336 is 6.
Lets's calculate LCM of 70,562
2 | 70, 562 |
35, 281 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 35 x 281 = 19670
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 6/19670
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 918/70,336/562 is 6/19670
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 70,562 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(70,562) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(70,562) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(70,562) = ( 70 × 562 ) / 2
LCM(70,562) = 39340 / 2
LCM(70,562) = 19670
