Lets's calculate LCM of 430,9496
2 | 430, 9496 |
215, 4748 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 215 x 4748 = 2041640
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/2041640
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5548/430,9930/9496 is 2/2041640
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 430,9496 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(430,9496) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(430,9496) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(430,9496) = ( 430 × 9496 ) / 2
LCM(430,9496) = 4083280 / 2
LCM(430,9496) = 2041640
