So the greatest common factor 1584,4176 is 144.
Lets's calculate LCM of 208,566
2 | 208, 566 |
104, 283 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 104 x 283 = 58864
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 144/58864
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1584/208,4176/566 is 144/58864
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 208,566 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(208,566) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(208,566) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(208,566) = ( 208 × 566 ) / 2
LCM(208,566) = 117728 / 2
LCM(208,566) = 58864
