Lets's calculate LCM of 493,476
17 | 493, 476 |
29, 28 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 17 x 29 x 28 = 13804
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/13804
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9456/493,7427/476 is 1/13804
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 493,476 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(493,476) = 17
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(493,476) x common factors =17 x 1 = 17
LCM(493,476) = ( 493 × 476 ) / 17
LCM(493,476) = 234668 / 17
LCM(493,476) = 13804
