Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 2112,5914 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2112,5914 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 540,388
2 | 540, 388 |
2 | 270, 194 |
135, 97 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 135 x 97 = 52380
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/52380
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2112/540,5914/388 is 2/52380
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 540,388 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(540,388) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(540,388) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(540,388) = ( 540 × 388 ) / 4
LCM(540,388) = 209520 / 4
LCM(540,388) = 52380
