Lets's calculate LCM of 606,4785
3 | 606, 4785 |
202, 1595 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 202 x 1595 = 966570
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/966570
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 72/606,1329/4785 is 3/966570
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 606,4785 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(606,4785) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(606,4785) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(606,4785) = ( 606 × 4785 ) / 3
LCM(606,4785) = 2899710 / 3
LCM(606,4785) = 966570
