So the greatest common factor 3295,3800 is 5.
Lets's calculate LCM of 252,1840
2 | 252, 1840 |
2 | 126, 920 |
63, 460 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 63 x 460 = 115920
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/115920
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3295/252,3800/1840 is 5/115920
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 252,1840 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(252,1840) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(252,1840) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(252,1840) = ( 252 × 1840 ) / 4
LCM(252,1840) = 463680 / 4
LCM(252,1840) = 115920
