Lets's calculate LCM of 668,384
2 | 668, 384 |
2 | 334, 192 |
167, 96 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 167 x 96 = 64128
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/64128
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 318/668,745/384 is 1/64128
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 668,384 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(668,384) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(668,384) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(668,384) = ( 668 × 384 ) / 4
LCM(668,384) = 256512 / 4
LCM(668,384) = 64128
