So the greatest common factor 267,888 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 726,206
2 | 726, 206 |
363, 103 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 363 x 103 = 74778
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/74778
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 267/726,888/206 is 3/74778
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 726,206 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(726,206) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(726,206) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(726,206) = ( 726 × 206 ) / 2
LCM(726,206) = 149556 / 2
LCM(726,206) = 74778
