Lets's calculate LCM of 650,9496
2 | 650, 9496 |
325, 4748 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 325 x 4748 = 3086200
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 172/3086200
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4988/650,5332/9496 is 172/3086200
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 650,9496 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(650,9496) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(650,9496) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(650,9496) = ( 650 × 9496 ) / 2
LCM(650,9496) = 6172400 / 2
LCM(650,9496) = 3086200
