Lets's calculate LCM of 320,1932
2 | 320, 1932 |
2 | 160, 966 |
80, 483 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 80 x 483 = 154560
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 9/154560
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2061/320,7173/1932 is 9/154560
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 320,1932 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(320,1932) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(320,1932) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(320,1932) = ( 320 × 1932 ) / 4
LCM(320,1932) = 618240 / 4
LCM(320,1932) = 154560
