Lets's calculate LCM of 524,276
2 | 524, 276 |
2 | 262, 138 |
131, 69 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 131 x 69 = 36156
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/36156
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4855/524,4132/276 is 1/36156
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 524,276 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(524,276) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(524,276) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(524,276) = ( 524 × 276 ) / 4
LCM(524,276) = 144624 / 4
LCM(524,276) = 36156
