Lets's calculate LCM of 488,427
61 | 488, 427 |
8, 7 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 61 x 8 x 7 = 3416
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/3416
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 398/488,425/427 is 1/3416
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 488,427 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(488,427) = 61
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(488,427) x common factors =61 x 1 = 61
LCM(488,427) = ( 488 × 427 ) / 61
LCM(488,427) = 208376 / 61
LCM(488,427) = 3416
