Lets's calculate LCM of 320,703
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 224960
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/224960
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4161/320,1434/703 is 3/224960
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 320,703 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(320,703) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(320,703) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(320,703) = ( 320 × 703 ) / 1
LCM(320,703) = 224960 / 1
LCM(320,703) = 224960
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
