Lets's calculate LCM of 220,3248
2 | 220, 3248 |
2 | 110, 1624 |
55, 812 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 55 x 812 = 178640
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/178640
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1716/220,3259/3248 is 1/178640
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 220,3248 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(220,3248) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(220,3248) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(220,3248) = ( 220 × 3248 ) / 4
LCM(220,3248) = 714560 / 4
LCM(220,3248) = 178640
