Lets's calculate LCM of 406,1446
2 | 406, 1446 |
203, 723 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 203 x 723 = 293538
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 49/293538
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7203/406,6664/1446 is 49/293538
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 406,1446 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(406,1446) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(406,1446) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(406,1446) = ( 406 × 1446 ) / 2
LCM(406,1446) = 587076 / 2
LCM(406,1446) = 293538
