Lets's calculate LCM of 140,1420
2 | 140, 1420 |
2 | 70, 710 |
5 | 35, 355 |
7, 71 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 5 x 7 x 71 = 9940
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/9940
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3300/140,2247/1420 is 3/9940
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 140,1420 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(140,1420) = 20
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(140,1420) x common factors =20 x 1 = 20
LCM(140,1420) = ( 140 × 1420 ) / 20
LCM(140,1420) = 198800 / 20
LCM(140,1420) = 9940
