So the greatest common factor 478,564 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 455,660
| 5 | 455, 660 |
| 91, 132 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 5 x 91 x 132 = 60060
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/60060
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 478/455,564/660 is 2/60060
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 455,660 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(455,660) = 5
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(455,660) x common factors =5 x 1 = 5
LCM(455,660) = ( 455 × 660 ) / 5
LCM(455,660) = 300300 / 5
LCM(455,660) = 60060
