Lets's calculate LCM of 890,627
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 558030
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/558030
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 996/890,748/627 is 4/558030
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 890,627 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(890,627) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(890,627) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(890,627) = ( 890 × 627 ) / 1
LCM(890,627) = 558030 / 1
LCM(890,627) = 558030
