So the greatest common factor 5649,6012 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 446,942
2 | 446, 942 |
223, 471 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 223 x 471 = 210066
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/210066
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5649/446,6012/942 is 3/210066
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 446,942 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(446,942) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(446,942) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(446,942) = ( 446 × 942 ) / 2
LCM(446,942) = 420132 / 2
LCM(446,942) = 210066
