Lets's calculate LCM of 646,8984
2 | 646, 8984 |
323, 4492 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 323 x 4492 = 2901832
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 20/2901832
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2520/646,7900/8984 is 20/2901832
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 646,8984 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(646,8984) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(646,8984) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(646,8984) = ( 646 × 8984 ) / 2
LCM(646,8984) = 5803664 / 2
LCM(646,8984) = 2901832
