Lets's calculate LCM of 716,4042
2 | 716, 4042 |
358, 2021 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 358 x 2021 = 1447036
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/1447036
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8484/716,8984/4042 is 4/1447036
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 716,4042 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(716,4042) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(716,4042) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(716,4042) = ( 716 × 4042 ) / 2
LCM(716,4042) = 2894072 / 2
LCM(716,4042) = 1447036
