Lets's calculate LCM of 242,4978
2 | 242, 4978 |
121, 2489 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 121 x 2489 = 602338
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/602338
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8816/242,7679/4978 is 1/602338
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 242,4978 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(242,4978) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(242,4978) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(242,4978) = ( 242 × 4978 ) / 2
LCM(242,4978) = 1204676 / 2
LCM(242,4978) = 602338
