2 | 488, 5658 |
244, 2829 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 244 x 2829 = 1380552
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1380552
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3605/488,4247/5658 is 1/1380552
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 488,5658 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(488,5658) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(488,5658) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(488,5658) = ( 488 × 5658 ) / 2
LCM(488,5658) = 2761104 / 2
LCM(488,5658) = 1380552
