Lets's calculate LCM of 478,286
2 | 478, 286 |
239, 143 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 239 x 143 = 68354
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/68354
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4755/478,5888/286 is 1/68354
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 478,286 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(478,286) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(478,286) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(478,286) = ( 478 × 286 ) / 2
LCM(478,286) = 136708 / 2
LCM(478,286) = 68354
