Lets's calculate LCM of 615,8436
| 3 | 615, 8436 |
| 205, 2812 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 205 x 2812 = 1729380
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1729380
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1495/615,4206/8436 is 1/1729380
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 615,8436 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(615,8436) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(615,8436) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(615,8436) = ( 615 × 8436 ) / 3
LCM(615,8436) = 5188140 / 3
LCM(615,8436) = 1729380
