So the greatest common factor 412,408 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 33,498
3 | 33, 498 |
11, 166 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 11 x 166 = 5478
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/5478
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 412/33,408/498 is 4/5478
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 33,498 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(33,498) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(33,498) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(33,498) = ( 33 × 498 ) / 3
LCM(33,498) = 16434 / 3
LCM(33,498) = 5478
