Lets's calculate LCM of 473,946
11 | 473, 946 |
43 | 43, 86 |
1, 2 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 11 x 43 x 1 x 2 = 946
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/946
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1790/473,6599/946 is 1/946
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 473,946 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(473,946) = 473
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(473,946) x common factors =473 x 1 = 473
LCM(473,946) = ( 473 × 946 ) / 473
LCM(473,946) = 447458 / 473
LCM(473,946) = 946
