So the greatest common factor 1568,3549 is 7.
Lets's calculate LCM of 466,3620
2 | 466, 3620 |
233, 1810 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 233 x 1810 = 843460
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 7/843460
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1568/466,3549/3620 is 7/843460
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 466,3620 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(466,3620) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(466,3620) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(466,3620) = ( 466 × 3620 ) / 2
LCM(466,3620) = 1686920 / 2
LCM(466,3620) = 843460
