Lets's calculate LCM of 640,6892
2 | 640, 6892 |
2 | 320, 3446 |
160, 1723 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 160 x 1723 = 1102720
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/1102720
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2560/640,5282/6892 is 2/1102720
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 640,6892 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(640,6892) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(640,6892) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(640,6892) = ( 640 × 6892 ) / 4
LCM(640,6892) = 4410880 / 4
LCM(640,6892) = 1102720
