Lets's calculate LCM of 308,280
2 | 308, 280 |
2 | 154, 140 |
7 | 77, 70 |
11, 10 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 7 x 11 x 10 = 3080
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/3080
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 176/308,377/280 is 1/3080
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 308,280 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(308,280) = 28
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(308,280) x common factors =28 x 1 = 28
LCM(308,280) = ( 308 × 280 ) / 28
LCM(308,280) = 86240 / 28
LCM(308,280) = 3080
