So the greatest common factor 292,336 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 776,722
2 | 776, 722 |
388, 361 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 388 x 361 = 280136
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/280136
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 292/776,336/722 is 4/280136
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 776,722 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(776,722) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(776,722) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(776,722) = ( 776 × 722 ) / 2
LCM(776,722) = 560272 / 2
LCM(776,722) = 280136
