Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 440,436 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 440,436 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 49,471
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 23079
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/23079
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 440/49,436/471 is 4/23079
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 49,471 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(49,471) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(49,471) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(49,471) = ( 49 × 471 ) / 1
LCM(49,471) = 23079 / 1
LCM(49,471) = 23079
