So the greatest common factor 4294,4370 is 38.
Lets's calculate LCM of 657,672
3 | 657, 672 |
219, 224 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 219 x 224 = 147168
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 38/147168
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4294/657,4370/672 is 38/147168
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 657,672 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(657,672) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(657,672) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(657,672) = ( 657 × 672 ) / 3
LCM(657,672) = 441504 / 3
LCM(657,672) = 147168
