So the greatest common factor 1660,3666 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 886,9840
2 | 886, 9840 |
443, 4920 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 443 x 4920 = 4359120
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/4359120
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1660/886,3666/9840 is 2/4359120
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 886,9840 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(886,9840) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(886,9840) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(886,9840) = ( 886 × 9840 ) / 2
LCM(886,9840) = 8718240 / 2
LCM(886,9840) = 4359120
