So the greatest common factor 726,1104 is 6.
Lets's calculate LCM of 966,1447
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1397802
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 6/1397802
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 726/966,1104/1447 is 6/1397802
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 966,1447 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(966,1447) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(966,1447) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(966,1447) = ( 966 × 1447 ) / 1
LCM(966,1447) = 1397802 / 1
LCM(966,1447) = 1397802
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
