Lets's calculate LCM of 604,4238
2 | 604, 4238 |
302, 2119 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 302 x 2119 = 1279876
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/1279876
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8271/604,6726/4238 is 3/1279876
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 604,4238 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(604,4238) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(604,4238) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(604,4238) = ( 604 × 4238 ) / 2
LCM(604,4238) = 2559752 / 2
LCM(604,4238) = 1279876
