We found the factors 3488,3910 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 3488,3910 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 920,1888
2 | 920, 1888 |
2 | 460, 944 |
2 | 230, 472 |
115, 236 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 115 x 236 = 217120
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/217120
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3488/920,3910/1888 is 2/217120
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 920,1888 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(920,1888) = 8
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(920,1888) x common factors =8 x 1 = 8
LCM(920,1888) = ( 920 × 1888 ) / 8
LCM(920,1888) = 1736960 / 8
LCM(920,1888) = 217120
