So the greatest common factor 7632,9556 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 423,799
47 | 423, 799 |
9, 17 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 47 x 9 x 17 = 7191
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/7191
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7632/423,9556/799 is 4/7191
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 423,799 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(423,799) = 47
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(423,799) x common factors =47 x 1 = 47
LCM(423,799) = ( 423 × 799 ) / 47
LCM(423,799) = 337977 / 47
LCM(423,799) = 7191
