Lets's calculate LCM of 922,9742
2 | 922, 9742 |
461, 4871 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 461 x 4871 = 4491062
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/4491062
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4740/922,5882/9742 is 2/4491062
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 922,9742 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(922,9742) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(922,9742) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(922,9742) = ( 922 × 9742 ) / 2
LCM(922,9742) = 8982124 / 2
LCM(922,9742) = 4491062
