2 | 248, 4888 |
2 | 124, 2444 |
2 | 62, 1222 |
31, 611 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 31 x 611 = 151528
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/151528
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7055/248,1238/4888 is 1/151528
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 248,4888 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(248,4888) = 8
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(248,4888) x common factors =8 x 1 = 8
LCM(248,4888) = ( 248 × 4888 ) / 8
LCM(248,4888) = 1212224 / 8
LCM(248,4888) = 151528
