Lets's calculate LCM of 846,4918
2 | 846, 4918 |
423, 2459 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 423 x 2459 = 2080314
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 20/2080314
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3880/846,8380/4918 is 20/2080314
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 846,4918 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(846,4918) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(846,4918) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(846,4918) = ( 846 × 4918 ) / 2
LCM(846,4918) = 4160628 / 2
LCM(846,4918) = 2080314
