So the greatest common factor 700,988 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 934,446
2 | 934, 446 |
467, 223 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 467 x 223 = 208282
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/208282
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 700/934,988/446 is 4/208282
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 934,446 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(934,446) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(934,446) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(934,446) = ( 934 × 446 ) / 2
LCM(934,446) = 416564 / 2
LCM(934,446) = 208282
