So the greatest common factor 4968,3654 is 18.
Lets's calculate LCM of 994,916
2 | 994, 916 |
497, 458 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 497 x 458 = 455252
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 18/455252
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4968/994,3654/916 is 18/455252
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 994,916 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(994,916) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(994,916) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(994,916) = ( 994 × 916 ) / 2
LCM(994,916) = 910504 / 2
LCM(994,916) = 455252
