Lets's calculate LCM of 942,4852
2 | 942, 4852 |
471, 2426 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 471 x 2426 = 2285292
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/2285292
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1637/942,8808/4852 is 1/2285292
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 942,4852 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(942,4852) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(942,4852) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(942,4852) = ( 942 × 4852 ) / 2
LCM(942,4852) = 4570584 / 2
LCM(942,4852) = 2285292
