Lets's calculate LCM of 740,3545
5 | 740, 3545 |
148, 709 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 5 x 148 x 709 = 524660
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/524660
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2964/740,1619/3545 is 1/524660
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 740,3545 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(740,3545) = 5
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(740,3545) x common factors =5 x 1 = 5
LCM(740,3545) = ( 740 × 3545 ) / 5
LCM(740,3545) = 2623300 / 5
LCM(740,3545) = 524660
