So the greatest common factor 444,264 is 12.
Lets's calculate LCM of 66,4729
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 312114
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 12/312114
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 444/66,264/4729 is 12/312114
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 66,4729 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(66,4729) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(66,4729) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(66,4729) = ( 66 × 4729 ) / 1
LCM(66,4729) = 312114 / 1
LCM(66,4729) = 312114
