So the greatest common factor 779,4332 is 19.
Lets's calculate LCM of 550,732
2 | 550, 732 |
275, 366 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 275 x 366 = 201300
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 19/201300
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 779/550,4332/732 is 19/201300
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 550,732 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(550,732) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(550,732) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(550,732) = ( 550 × 732 ) / 2
LCM(550,732) = 402600 / 2
LCM(550,732) = 201300
