Lets's calculate LCM of 786,4832
2 | 786, 4832 |
393, 2416 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 393 x 2416 = 1898976
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/1898976
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 483/786,9978/4832 is 3/1898976
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 786,4832 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(786,4832) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(786,4832) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(786,4832) = ( 786 × 4832 ) / 2
LCM(786,4832) = 3797952 / 2
LCM(786,4832) = 1898976
