Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1770,6720 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1770,6720 is 30.
Lets's calculate LCM of 264,436
2 | 264, 436 |
2 | 132, 218 |
66, 109 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 66 x 109 = 28776
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 30/28776
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1770/264,6720/436 is 30/28776
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 264,436 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(264,436) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(264,436) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(264,436) = ( 264 × 436 ) / 4
LCM(264,436) = 115104 / 4
LCM(264,436) = 28776
