Lets's calculate LCM of 486,8847
3 | 486, 8847 |
3 | 162, 2949 |
54, 983 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 3 x 54 x 983 = 477738
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 6/477738
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5100/486,4158/8847 is 6/477738
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 486,8847 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(486,8847) = 9
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(486,8847) x common factors =9 x 1 = 9
LCM(486,8847) = ( 486 × 8847 ) / 9
LCM(486,8847) = 4299642 / 9
LCM(486,8847) = 477738
