Lets's calculate LCM of 506,437
23 | 506, 437 |
22, 19 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 23 x 22 x 19 = 9614
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/9614
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4832/506,5212/437 is 4/9614
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 506,437 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(506,437) = 23
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(506,437) x common factors =23 x 1 = 23
LCM(506,437) = ( 506 × 437 ) / 23
LCM(506,437) = 221122 / 23
LCM(506,437) = 9614
