Lets's calculate LCM of 204,4638
2 | 204, 4638 |
3 | 102, 2319 |
34, 773 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 34 x 773 = 157692
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/157692
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7016/204,2460/4638 is 4/157692
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 204,4638 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(204,4638) = 6
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(204,4638) x common factors =6 x 1 = 6
LCM(204,4638) = ( 204 × 4638 ) / 6
LCM(204,4638) = 946152 / 6
LCM(204,4638) = 157692
