:1,4943
Now, list down the factors of 4938
:1,2,3,6,823,1646,2469,4938
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 4943,4938 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 4943,4938 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 624,461
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 287664
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/287664
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4943/624,4938/461 is 1/287664
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 624,461 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(624,461) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(624,461) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(624,461) = ( 624 × 461 ) / 1
LCM(624,461) = 287664 / 1
LCM(624,461) = 287664
