Lets's calculate LCM of 627,3504
3 | 627, 3504 |
209, 1168 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 209 x 1168 = 732336
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/732336
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2920/627,1602/3504 is 2/732336
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 627,3504 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(627,3504) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(627,3504) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(627,3504) = ( 627 × 3504 ) / 3
LCM(627,3504) = 2197008 / 3
LCM(627,3504) = 732336
