Lets's calculate LCM of 602,2812
2 | 602, 2812 |
301, 1406 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 301 x 1406 = 846412
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 12/846412
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2316/602,4704/2812 is 12/846412
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 602,2812 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(602,2812) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(602,2812) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(602,2812) = ( 602 × 2812 ) / 2
LCM(602,2812) = 1692824 / 2
LCM(602,2812) = 846412
