So the greatest common factor 7204,4016 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 458,6898
2 | 458, 6898 |
229, 3449 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 229 x 3449 = 1579642
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/1579642
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7204/458,4016/6898 is 4/1579642
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 458,6898 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(458,6898) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(458,6898) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(458,6898) = ( 458 × 6898 ) / 2
LCM(458,6898) = 3159284 / 2
LCM(458,6898) = 1579642
