Lets's calculate LCM of 124,4298
2 | 124, 4298 |
62, 2149 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 62 x 2149 = 266476
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/266476
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4258/124,7208/4298 is 2/266476
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 124,4298 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(124,4298) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(124,4298) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(124,4298) = ( 124 × 4298 ) / 2
LCM(124,4298) = 532952 / 2
LCM(124,4298) = 266476
