So the greatest common factor 442,608 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 94,5222
2 | 94, 5222 |
47, 2611 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 47 x 2611 = 245434
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/245434
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 442/94,608/5222 is 2/245434
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 94,5222 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(94,5222) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(94,5222) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(94,5222) = ( 94 × 5222 ) / 2
LCM(94,5222) = 490868 / 2
LCM(94,5222) = 245434
