Lets's calculate LCM of 544,5570
2 | 544, 5570 |
272, 2785 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 272 x 2785 = 1515040
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 34/1515040
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3298/544,2176/5570 is 34/1515040
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 544,5570 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(544,5570) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(544,5570) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(544,5570) = ( 544 × 5570 ) / 2
LCM(544,5570) = 3030080 / 2
LCM(544,5570) = 1515040
