Lets's calculate LCM of 488,5992
2 | 488, 5992 |
2 | 244, 2996 |
2 | 122, 1498 |
61, 749 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 61 x 749 = 365512
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/365512
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8239/488,7338/5992 is 1/365512
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 488,5992 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(488,5992) = 8
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(488,5992) x common factors =8 x 1 = 8
LCM(488,5992) = ( 488 × 5992 ) / 8
LCM(488,5992) = 2924096 / 8
LCM(488,5992) = 365512
