So the greatest common factor 703,711 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 472,944
2 | 472, 944 |
2 | 236, 472 |
2 | 118, 236 |
59 | 59, 118 |
1, 2 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 59 x 1 x 2 = 944
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/944
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 703/472,711/944 is 1/944
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 472,944 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(472,944) = 472
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(472,944) x common factors =472 x 1 = 472
LCM(472,944) = ( 472 × 944 ) / 472
LCM(472,944) = 445568 / 472
LCM(472,944) = 944
