Lets's calculate LCM of 818,4978
2 | 818, 4978 |
409, 2489 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 409 x 2489 = 2036002
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/2036002
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5188/818,2152/4978 is 4/2036002
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 818,4978 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(818,4978) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(818,4978) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(818,4978) = ( 818 × 4978 ) / 2
LCM(818,4978) = 4072004 / 2
LCM(818,4978) = 2036002
