Lets's calculate LCM of 438,9566
2 | 438, 9566 |
219, 4783 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 219 x 4783 = 2094954
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/2094954
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 28/438,4514/9566 is 2/2094954
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 438,9566 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(438,9566) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(438,9566) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(438,9566) = ( 438 × 9566 ) / 2
LCM(438,9566) = 4189908 / 2
LCM(438,9566) = 2094954
