Lets's calculate LCM of 270,392
2 | 270, 392 |
135, 196 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 135 x 196 = 52920
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/52920
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 327/270,228/392 is 3/52920
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 270,392 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(270,392) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(270,392) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(270,392) = ( 270 × 392 ) / 2
LCM(270,392) = 105840 / 2
LCM(270,392) = 52920
