Lets's calculate LCM of 716,2472
2 | 716, 2472 |
2 | 358, 1236 |
179, 618 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 179 x 618 = 442488
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/442488
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4904/716,1579/2472 is 1/442488
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 716,2472 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(716,2472) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(716,2472) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(716,2472) = ( 716 × 2472 ) / 4
LCM(716,2472) = 1769952 / 4
LCM(716,2472) = 442488
