So the greatest common factor 4780,3056 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 542,955
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 517610
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/517610
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4780/542,3056/955 is 4/517610
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 542,955 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(542,955) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(542,955) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(542,955) = ( 542 × 955 ) / 1
LCM(542,955) = 517610 / 1
LCM(542,955) = 517610
