Lets's calculate LCM of 464,1304
2 | 464, 1304 |
2 | 232, 652 |
2 | 116, 326 |
58, 163 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 58 x 163 = 75632
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/75632
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2602/464,7642/1304 is 2/75632
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 464,1304 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(464,1304) = 8
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(464,1304) x common factors =8 x 1 = 8
LCM(464,1304) = ( 464 × 1304 ) / 8
LCM(464,1304) = 605056 / 8
LCM(464,1304) = 75632
