So the greatest common factor 4466,1172 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 703,933
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 655899
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/655899
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4466/703,1172/933 is 2/655899
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 703,933 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(703,933) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(703,933) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(703,933) = ( 703 × 933 ) / 1
LCM(703,933) = 655899 / 1
LCM(703,933) = 655899
