Lets's calculate LCM of 512,4090
2 | 512, 4090 |
256, 2045 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 256 x 2045 = 1047040
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/1047040
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2116/512,8978/4090 is 2/1047040
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 512,4090 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(512,4090) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(512,4090) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(512,4090) = ( 512 × 4090 ) / 2
LCM(512,4090) = 2094080 / 2
LCM(512,4090) = 1047040
