So the greatest common factor 4230,6616 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 388,5000
2 | 388, 5000 |
2 | 194, 2500 |
97, 1250 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 97 x 1250 = 485000
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/485000
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4230/388,6616/5000 is 2/485000
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 388,5000 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(388,5000) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(388,5000) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(388,5000) = ( 388 × 5000 ) / 4
LCM(388,5000) = 1940000 / 4
LCM(388,5000) = 485000
