Lets's calculate LCM of 446,2292
2 | 446, 2292 |
223, 1146 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 223 x 1146 = 511116
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/511116
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 793/446,1496/2292 is 1/511116
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 446,2292 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(446,2292) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(446,2292) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(446,2292) = ( 446 × 2292 ) / 2
LCM(446,2292) = 1022232 / 2
LCM(446,2292) = 511116
