Lets's calculate LCM of 328,422
2 | 328, 422 |
164, 211 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 164 x 211 = 69208
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/69208
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3224/328,1059/422 is 1/69208
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 328,422 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(328,422) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(328,422) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(328,422) = ( 328 × 422 ) / 2
LCM(328,422) = 138416 / 2
LCM(328,422) = 69208
