Lets's calculate LCM of 862,490
2 | 862, 490 |
431, 245 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 431 x 245 = 211190
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 317/211190
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4438/862,6023/490 is 317/211190
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 862,490 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(862,490) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(862,490) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(862,490) = ( 862 × 490 ) / 2
LCM(862,490) = 422380 / 2
LCM(862,490) = 211190
