Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 4902,8438 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 4902,8438 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 451,812
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 366212
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/366212
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4902/451,8438/812 is 2/366212
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 451,812 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(451,812) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(451,812) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(451,812) = ( 451 × 812 ) / 1
LCM(451,812) = 366212 / 1
LCM(451,812) = 366212
