Lets's calculate LCM of 624,416
2 | 624, 416 |
2 | 312, 208 |
2 | 156, 104 |
2 | 78, 52 |
13 | 39, 26 |
3, 2 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 13 x 3 x 2 = 1248
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/1248
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 334/624,296/416 is 2/1248
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 624,416 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(624,416) = 208
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(624,416) x common factors =208 x 1 = 208
LCM(624,416) = ( 624 × 416 ) / 208
LCM(624,416) = 259584 / 208
LCM(624,416) = 1248
