Lets's calculate LCM of 556,4660
2 | 556, 4660 |
2 | 278, 2330 |
139, 1165 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 139 x 1165 = 647740
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/647740
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9642/556,5666/4660 is 2/647740
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 556,4660 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(556,4660) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(556,4660) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(556,4660) = ( 556 × 4660 ) / 4
LCM(556,4660) = 2590960 / 4
LCM(556,4660) = 647740
