Lets's calculate LCM of 972,4262
2 | 972, 4262 |
486, 2131 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 486 x 2131 = 2071332
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/2071332
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4894/972,3091/4262 is 1/2071332
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 972,4262 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(972,4262) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(972,4262) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(972,4262) = ( 972 × 4262 ) / 2
LCM(972,4262) = 4142664 / 2
LCM(972,4262) = 2071332
