:1,2,4,617,1234,2468
Now, list down the factors of 1470
:1,2,3,5,6,7,10,14,15,21,30,35,42,49,70,98,105,147,210,245,294,490,735,1470
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 2468,1470 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2468,1470 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 473,3605
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1705165
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/1705165
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2468/473,1470/3605 is 2/1705165
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 473,3605 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(473,3605) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(473,3605) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(473,3605) = ( 473 × 3605 ) / 1
LCM(473,3605) = 1705165 / 1
LCM(473,3605) = 1705165
