Lets's calculate LCM of 721,808
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 582568
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/582568
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1476/721,2612/808 is 4/582568
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 721,808 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(721,808) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(721,808) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(721,808) = ( 721 × 808 ) / 1
LCM(721,808) = 582568 / 1
LCM(721,808) = 582568
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
