Lets's calculate LCM of 346,2176
2 | 346, 2176 |
173, 1088 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 173 x 1088 = 376448
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/376448
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1601/346,5302/2176 is 1/376448
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 346,2176 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(346,2176) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(346,2176) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(346,2176) = ( 346 × 2176 ) / 2
LCM(346,2176) = 752896 / 2
LCM(346,2176) = 376448
