So the greatest common factor 4064,6352 is 16.
Lets's calculate LCM of 704,738
2 | 704, 738 |
352, 369 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 352 x 369 = 259776
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 16/259776
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4064/704,6352/738 is 16/259776
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 704,738 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(704,738) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(704,738) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(704,738) = ( 704 × 738 ) / 2
LCM(704,738) = 519552 / 2
LCM(704,738) = 259776
