Lets's calculate LCM of 438,5770
2 | 438, 5770 |
219, 2885 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 219 x 2885 = 1263630
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 16/1263630
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1600/438,9008/5770 is 16/1263630
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 438,5770 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(438,5770) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(438,5770) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(438,5770) = ( 438 × 5770 ) / 2
LCM(438,5770) = 2527260 / 2
LCM(438,5770) = 1263630
