We found the factors 4479,5976 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 4479,5976 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 114,7656
2 | 114, 7656 |
3 | 57, 3828 |
19, 1276 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 19 x 1276 = 145464
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/145464
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4479/114,5976/7656 is 3/145464
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 114,7656 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(114,7656) = 6
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(114,7656) x common factors =6 x 1 = 6
LCM(114,7656) = ( 114 × 7656 ) / 6
LCM(114,7656) = 872784 / 6
LCM(114,7656) = 145464
