So the greatest common factor 7006,8950 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 48,938
2 | 48, 938 |
24, 469 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 24 x 469 = 22512
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/22512
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7006/48,8950/938 is 2/22512
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 48,938 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(48,938) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(48,938) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(48,938) = ( 48 × 938 ) / 2
LCM(48,938) = 45024 / 2
LCM(48,938) = 22512
