So the greatest common factor 406,8646 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 544,824
2 | 544, 824 |
2 | 272, 412 |
2 | 136, 206 |
68, 103 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 68 x 103 = 56032
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/56032
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 406/544,8646/824 is 2/56032
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 544,824 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(544,824) = 8
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(544,824) x common factors =8 x 1 = 8
LCM(544,824) = ( 544 × 824 ) / 8
LCM(544,824) = 448256 / 8
LCM(544,824) = 56032
