Lets's calculate LCM of 496,7406
2 | 496, 7406 |
248, 3703 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 248 x 3703 = 1836688
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 69/1836688
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8970/496,4209/7406 is 69/1836688
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 496,7406 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(496,7406) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(496,7406) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(496,7406) = ( 496 × 7406 ) / 2
LCM(496,7406) = 3673376 / 2
LCM(496,7406) = 1836688
