So the greatest common factor 440,4692 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 717,906
3 | 717, 906 |
239, 302 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 239 x 302 = 216534
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/216534
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 440/717,4692/906 is 4/216534
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 717,906 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(717,906) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(717,906) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(717,906) = ( 717 × 906 ) / 3
LCM(717,906) = 649602 / 3
LCM(717,906) = 216534
