2 | 992, 4646 |
496, 2323 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 496 x 2323 = 2304416
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/2304416
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4817/992,8974/4646 is 1/2304416
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 992,4646 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(992,4646) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(992,4646) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(992,4646) = ( 992 × 4646 ) / 2
LCM(992,4646) = 4608832 / 2
LCM(992,4646) = 2304416
