:1,2,4,503,1006,2012
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 4512,2012 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 4512,2012 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 964,455
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 438620
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/438620
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4512/964,2012/455 is 4/438620
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 964,455 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(964,455) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(964,455) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(964,455) = ( 964 × 455 ) / 1
LCM(964,455) = 438620 / 1
LCM(964,455) = 438620
