Lets's calculate LCM of 116,3948
2 | 116, 3948 |
2 | 58, 1974 |
29, 987 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 29 x 987 = 114492
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 7/114492
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7476/116,4655/3948 is 7/114492
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 116,3948 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(116,3948) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(116,3948) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(116,3948) = ( 116 × 3948 ) / 4
LCM(116,3948) = 457968 / 4
LCM(116,3948) = 114492
