So the greatest common factor 433,272 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 492,706
2 | 492, 706 |
246, 353 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 246 x 353 = 173676
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/173676
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 433/492,272/706 is 1/173676
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 492,706 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(492,706) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(492,706) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(492,706) = ( 492 × 706 ) / 2
LCM(492,706) = 347352 / 2
LCM(492,706) = 173676
