So the greatest common factor 4842,9088 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 148,712
2 | 148, 712 |
2 | 74, 356 |
37, 178 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 37 x 178 = 26344
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/26344
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4842/148,9088/712 is 2/26344
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 148,712 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(148,712) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(148,712) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(148,712) = ( 148 × 712 ) / 4
LCM(148,712) = 105376 / 4
LCM(148,712) = 26344
