So the greatest common factor 444,286 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 752,904
2 | 752, 904 |
2 | 376, 452 |
2 | 188, 226 |
94, 113 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 94 x 113 = 84976
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/84976
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 444/752,286/904 is 2/84976
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 752,904 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(752,904) = 8
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(752,904) x common factors =8 x 1 = 8
LCM(752,904) = ( 752 × 904 ) / 8
LCM(752,904) = 679808 / 8
LCM(752,904) = 84976
