Lets's calculate LCM of 68,9426
2 | 68, 9426 |
34, 4713 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 34 x 4713 = 320484
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/320484
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 445/68,768/9426 is 1/320484
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 68,9426 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(68,9426) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(68,9426) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(68,9426) = ( 68 × 9426 ) / 2
LCM(68,9426) = 640968 / 2
LCM(68,9426) = 320484
