Lets's calculate LCM of 522,4482
2 | 522, 4482 |
3 | 261, 2241 |
3 | 87, 747 |
29, 249 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 3 x 29 x 249 = 129978
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 20/129978
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7220/522,1200/4482 is 20/129978
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 522,4482 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(522,4482) = 18
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(522,4482) x common factors =18 x 1 = 18
LCM(522,4482) = ( 522 × 4482 ) / 18
LCM(522,4482) = 2339604 / 18
LCM(522,4482) = 129978
