Lets's calculate LCM of 30,502
2 | 30, 502 |
15, 251 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 15 x 251 = 7530
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/7530
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4438/30,7668/502 is 2/7530
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 30,502 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(30,502) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(30,502) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(30,502) = ( 30 × 502 ) / 2
LCM(30,502) = 15060 / 2
LCM(30,502) = 7530
