Lets's calculate LCM of 944,308
2 | 944, 308 |
2 | 472, 154 |
236, 77 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 236 x 77 = 72688
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/72688
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 672/944,4631/308 is 1/72688
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 944,308 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(944,308) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(944,308) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(944,308) = ( 944 × 308 ) / 4
LCM(944,308) = 290752 / 4
LCM(944,308) = 72688
