2 | 212, 3980 |
2 | 106, 1990 |
53, 995 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 53 x 995 = 210940
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/210940
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2908/212,7782/3980 is 2/210940
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 212,3980 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(212,3980) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(212,3980) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(212,3980) = ( 212 × 3980 ) / 4
LCM(212,3980) = 843760 / 4
LCM(212,3980) = 210940
