Lets's calculate LCM of 456,4796
2 | 456, 4796 |
2 | 228, 2398 |
114, 1199 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 114 x 1199 = 546744
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/546744
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4516/456,8042/4796 is 2/546744
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 456,4796 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(456,4796) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(456,4796) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(456,4796) = ( 456 × 4796 ) / 4
LCM(456,4796) = 2186976 / 4
LCM(456,4796) = 546744
