So the greatest common factor 2680,7184 is 8.
Lets's calculate LCM of 860,146
2 | 860, 146 |
430, 73 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 430 x 73 = 62780
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 8/62780
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2680/860,7184/146 is 8/62780
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 860,146 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(860,146) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(860,146) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(860,146) = ( 860 × 146 ) / 2
LCM(860,146) = 125560 / 2
LCM(860,146) = 62780
