Lets's calculate LCM of 670,742
2 | 670, 742 |
335, 371 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 335 x 371 = 248570
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/248570
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4879/670,5837/742 is 1/248570
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 670,742 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(670,742) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(670,742) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(670,742) = ( 670 × 742 ) / 2
LCM(670,742) = 497140 / 2
LCM(670,742) = 248570
