Lets's calculate LCM of 850,680
2 | 850, 680 |
5 | 425, 340 |
17 | 85, 68 |
5, 4 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 5 x 17 x 5 x 4 = 3400
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/3400
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2390/850,7724/680 is 2/3400
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 850,680 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(850,680) = 170
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(850,680) x common factors =170 x 1 = 170
LCM(850,680) = ( 850 × 680 ) / 170
LCM(850,680) = 578000 / 170
LCM(850,680) = 3400
