So the greatest common factor 7206,4719 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 559,904
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 505336
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/505336
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7206/559,4719/904 is 3/505336
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 559,904 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(559,904) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(559,904) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(559,904) = ( 559 × 904 ) / 1
LCM(559,904) = 505336 / 1
LCM(559,904) = 505336
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
