Lets's calculate LCM of 240,3346
2 | 240, 3346 |
120, 1673 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 120 x 1673 = 401520
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/401520
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1580/240,2419/3346 is 1/401520
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 240,3346 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(240,3346) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(240,3346) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(240,3346) = ( 240 × 3346 ) / 2
LCM(240,3346) = 803040 / 2
LCM(240,3346) = 401520
