Lets's calculate LCM of 994,4482
2 | 994, 4482 |
497, 2241 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 497 x 2241 = 2227554
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/2227554
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4469/994,6993/4482 is 1/2227554
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 994,4482 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(994,4482) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(994,4482) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(994,4482) = ( 994 × 4482 ) / 2
LCM(994,4482) = 4455108 / 2
LCM(994,4482) = 2227554
