Lets's calculate LCM of 640,2344
2 | 640, 2344 |
2 | 320, 1172 |
2 | 160, 586 |
80, 293 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 80 x 293 = 187520
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 55/187520
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3355/640,5995/2344 is 55/187520
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 640,2344 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(640,2344) = 8
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(640,2344) x common factors =8 x 1 = 8
LCM(640,2344) = ( 640 × 2344 ) / 8
LCM(640,2344) = 1500160 / 8
LCM(640,2344) = 187520
