2 | 470, 4976 |
235, 2488 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 235 x 2488 = 1169360
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1169360
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5386/470,1581/4976 is 1/1169360
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 470,4976 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(470,4976) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(470,4976) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(470,4976) = ( 470 × 4976 ) / 2
LCM(470,4976) = 2338720 / 2
LCM(470,4976) = 1169360
