So the greatest common factor 7679,4418 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 256,748
2 | 256, 748 |
2 | 128, 374 |
64, 187 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 64 x 187 = 47872
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/47872
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7679/256,4418/748 is 1/47872
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 256,748 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(256,748) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(256,748) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(256,748) = ( 256 × 748 ) / 4
LCM(256,748) = 191488 / 4
LCM(256,748) = 47872
