So the greatest common factor 308,736 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 46,9066
2 | 46, 9066 |
23, 4533 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 23 x 4533 = 208518
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/208518
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 308/46,736/9066 is 4/208518
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 46,9066 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(46,9066) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(46,9066) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(46,9066) = ( 46 × 9066 ) / 2
LCM(46,9066) = 417036 / 2
LCM(46,9066) = 208518
