Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 4252,1598 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 4252,1598 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 960,4484
2 | 960, 4484 |
2 | 480, 2242 |
240, 1121 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 240 x 1121 = 1076160
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/1076160
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4252/960,1598/4484 is 2/1076160
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 960,4484 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(960,4484) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(960,4484) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(960,4484) = ( 960 × 4484 ) / 4
LCM(960,4484) = 4304640 / 4
LCM(960,4484) = 1076160
