So the greatest common factor 476,918 is 34.
Lets's calculate LCM of 16,772
2 | 16, 772 |
2 | 8, 386 |
4, 193 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 4 x 193 = 3088
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 34/3088
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 476/16,918/772 is 34/3088
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 16,772 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(16,772) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(16,772) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(16,772) = ( 16 × 772 ) / 4
LCM(16,772) = 12352 / 4
LCM(16,772) = 3088
