Lets's calculate LCM of 502,1788
2 | 502, 1788 |
251, 894 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 251 x 894 = 448788
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/448788
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4211/502,3408/1788 is 1/448788
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 502,1788 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(502,1788) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(502,1788) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(502,1788) = ( 502 × 1788 ) / 2
LCM(502,1788) = 897576 / 2
LCM(502,1788) = 448788
