Lets's calculate LCM of 518,6046
2 | 518, 6046 |
259, 3023 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 259 x 3023 = 1565914
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/1565914
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3964/518,6576/6046 is 4/1565914
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 518,6046 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(518,6046) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(518,6046) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(518,6046) = ( 518 × 6046 ) / 2
LCM(518,6046) = 3131828 / 2
LCM(518,6046) = 1565914
