Lets's calculate LCM of 604,4220
2 | 604, 4220 |
2 | 302, 2110 |
151, 1055 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 151 x 1055 = 637220
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/637220
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8924/604,5844/4220 is 4/637220
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 604,4220 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(604,4220) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(604,4220) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(604,4220) = ( 604 × 4220 ) / 4
LCM(604,4220) = 2548880 / 4
LCM(604,4220) = 637220
