So the greatest common factor 3234,2370 is 6.
Lets's calculate LCM of 475,320
5 | 475, 320 |
95, 64 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 5 x 95 x 64 = 30400
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 6/30400
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3234/475,2370/320 is 6/30400
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 475,320 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(475,320) = 5
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(475,320) x common factors =5 x 1 = 5
LCM(475,320) = ( 475 × 320 ) / 5
LCM(475,320) = 152000 / 5
LCM(475,320) = 30400
