So the greatest common factor 4122,7596 is 18.
Lets's calculate LCM of 964,990
2 | 964, 990 |
482, 495 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 482 x 495 = 477180
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 18/477180
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4122/964,7596/990 is 18/477180
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 964,990 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(964,990) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(964,990) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(964,990) = ( 964 × 990 ) / 2
LCM(964,990) = 954360 / 2
LCM(964,990) = 477180
