Lets's calculate LCM of 790,4568
2 | 790, 4568 |
395, 2284 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 395 x 2284 = 1804360
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 6/1804360
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1572/790,4002/4568 is 6/1804360
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 790,4568 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(790,4568) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(790,4568) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(790,4568) = ( 790 × 4568 ) / 2
LCM(790,4568) = 3608720 / 2
LCM(790,4568) = 1804360
