Lets's calculate LCM of 488,952
2 | 488, 952 |
2 | 244, 476 |
2 | 122, 238 |
61, 119 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 61 x 119 = 58072
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/58072
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 773/488,426/952 is 1/58072
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 488,952 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(488,952) = 8
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(488,952) x common factors =8 x 1 = 8
LCM(488,952) = ( 488 × 952 ) / 8
LCM(488,952) = 464576 / 8
LCM(488,952) = 58072
