Lets's calculate LCM of 480,4077
3 | 480, 4077 |
160, 1359 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 160 x 1359 = 652320
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/652320
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4662/480,1541/4077 is 1/652320
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 480,4077 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(480,4077) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(480,4077) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(480,4077) = ( 480 × 4077 ) / 3
LCM(480,4077) = 1956960 / 3
LCM(480,4077) = 652320
