So the greatest common factor 3560,4626 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 342,4514
2 | 342, 4514 |
171, 2257 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 171 x 2257 = 771894
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/771894
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3560/342,4626/4514 is 2/771894
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 342,4514 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(342,4514) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(342,4514) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(342,4514) = ( 342 × 4514 ) / 2
LCM(342,4514) = 1543788 / 2
LCM(342,4514) = 771894
