So the greatest common factor 748,464 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 393,726
3 | 393, 726 |
131, 242 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 131 x 242 = 95106
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/95106
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 748/393,464/726 is 4/95106
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 393,726 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(393,726) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(393,726) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(393,726) = ( 393 × 726 ) / 3
LCM(393,726) = 285318 / 3
LCM(393,726) = 95106
