2 | 240, 4652 |
2 | 120, 2326 |
60, 1163 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 60 x 1163 = 279120
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/279120
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9887/240,5826/4652 is 1/279120
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 240,4652 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(240,4652) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(240,4652) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(240,4652) = ( 240 × 4652 ) / 4
LCM(240,4652) = 1116480 / 4
LCM(240,4652) = 279120
