Lets's calculate LCM of 122,956
2 | 122, 956 |
61, 478 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 61 x 478 = 58316
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 9/58316
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4437/122,4644/956 is 9/58316
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 122,956 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(122,956) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(122,956) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(122,956) = ( 122 × 956 ) / 2
LCM(122,956) = 116632 / 2
LCM(122,956) = 58316
