Lets's calculate LCM of 482,2134
2 | 482, 2134 |
241, 1067 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 241 x 1067 = 514294
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/514294
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1287/482,4886/2134 is 1/514294
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 482,2134 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(482,2134) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(482,2134) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(482,2134) = ( 482 × 2134 ) / 2
LCM(482,2134) = 1028588 / 2
LCM(482,2134) = 514294
