Lets's calculate LCM of 727,466
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 338782
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/338782
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4302/727,5529/466 is 3/338782
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 727,466 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(727,466) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(727,466) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(727,466) = ( 727 × 466 ) / 1
LCM(727,466) = 338782 / 1
LCM(727,466) = 338782
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
