So the greatest common factor 2752,4968 is 8.
Lets's calculate LCM of 380,988
2 | 380, 988 |
2 | 190, 494 |
19 | 95, 247 |
5, 13 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 19 x 5 x 13 = 4940
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 8/4940
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2752/380,4968/988 is 8/4940
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 380,988 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(380,988) = 76
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(380,988) x common factors =76 x 1 = 76
LCM(380,988) = ( 380 × 988 ) / 76
LCM(380,988) = 375440 / 76
LCM(380,988) = 4940
