Lets's calculate LCM of 454,6988
2 | 454, 6988 |
227, 3494 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 227 x 3494 = 1586276
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 16/1586276
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4656/454,9232/6988 is 16/1586276
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 454,6988 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(454,6988) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(454,6988) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(454,6988) = ( 454 × 6988 ) / 2
LCM(454,6988) = 3172552 / 2
LCM(454,6988) = 1586276
