Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 4896,6988 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 4896,6988 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 457,4909
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2243413
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/2243413
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4896/457,6988/4909 is 4/2243413
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 457,4909 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(457,4909) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(457,4909) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(457,4909) = ( 457 × 4909 ) / 1
LCM(457,4909) = 2243413 / 1
LCM(457,4909) = 2243413
