So the greatest common factor 3035,2440 is 5.
Lets's calculate LCM of 848,304
2 | 848, 304 |
2 | 424, 152 |
2 | 212, 76 |
2 | 106, 38 |
53, 19 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 53 x 19 = 16112
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/16112
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3035/848,2440/304 is 5/16112
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 848,304 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(848,304) = 16
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(848,304) x common factors =16 x 1 = 16
LCM(848,304) = ( 848 × 304 ) / 16
LCM(848,304) = 257792 / 16
LCM(848,304) = 16112
