Lets's calculate LCM of 320,3034
2 | 320, 3034 |
160, 1517 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 160 x 1517 = 485440
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/485440
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 28/320,1537/3034 is 1/485440
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 320,3034 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(320,3034) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(320,3034) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(320,3034) = ( 320 × 3034 ) / 2
LCM(320,3034) = 970880 / 2
LCM(320,3034) = 485440
