So the greatest common factor 994,925 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 612,612
2 | 612, 612 |
2 | 306, 306 |
3 | 153, 153 |
3 | 51, 51 |
17 | 17, 17 |
1, 1 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 x 17 x 1 x 1 = 612
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/612
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 994/612,925/612 is 1/612
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 612,612 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(612,612) = 612
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(612,612) x common factors =612 x 1 = 612
LCM(612,612) = ( 612 × 612 ) / 612
LCM(612,612) = 374544 / 612
LCM(612,612) = 612
