Lets's calculate LCM of 760,1636
2 | 760, 1636 |
2 | 380, 818 |
190, 409 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 190 x 409 = 310840
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/310840
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1699/760,2992/1636 is 1/310840
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 760,1636 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(760,1636) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(760,1636) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(760,1636) = ( 760 × 1636 ) / 4
LCM(760,1636) = 1243360 / 4
LCM(760,1636) = 310840
