So the greatest common factor 7862,2071 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 734,446
2 | 734, 446 |
367, 223 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 367 x 223 = 163682
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/163682
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7862/734,2071/446 is 1/163682
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 734,446 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(734,446) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(734,446) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(734,446) = ( 734 × 446 ) / 2
LCM(734,446) = 327364 / 2
LCM(734,446) = 163682
