So the greatest common factor 1904,4838 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 502,8848
2 | 502, 8848 |
251, 4424 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 251 x 4424 = 2220848
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/2220848
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1904/502,4838/8848 is 2/2220848
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 502,8848 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(502,8848) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(502,8848) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(502,8848) = ( 502 × 8848 ) / 2
LCM(502,8848) = 4441696 / 2
LCM(502,8848) = 2220848
