2 | 902, 5280 |
11 | 451, 2640 |
41, 240 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 11 x 41 x 240 = 216480
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 19/216480
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4959/902,7258/5280 is 19/216480
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 902,5280 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(902,5280) = 22
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(902,5280) x common factors =22 x 1 = 22
LCM(902,5280) = ( 902 × 5280 ) / 22
LCM(902,5280) = 4762560 / 22
LCM(902,5280) = 216480
