2 | 802, 4172 |
401, 2086 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 401 x 2086 = 1672972
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1672972
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3417/802,4361/4172 is 1/1672972
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 802,4172 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(802,4172) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(802,4172) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(802,4172) = ( 802 × 4172 ) / 2
LCM(802,4172) = 3345944 / 2
LCM(802,4172) = 1672972
