So the greatest common factor 687,7930 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 446,738
2 | 446, 738 |
223, 369 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 223 x 369 = 164574
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/164574
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 687/446,7930/738 is 1/164574
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 446,738 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(446,738) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(446,738) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(446,738) = ( 446 × 738 ) / 2
LCM(446,738) = 329148 / 2
LCM(446,738) = 164574
