Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 3528,5200 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 3528,5200 is 8.
Lets's calculate LCM of 432,5530
2 | 432, 5530 |
216, 2765 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 216 x 2765 = 1194480
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 8/1194480
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3528/432,5200/5530 is 8/1194480
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 432,5530 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(432,5530) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(432,5530) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(432,5530) = ( 432 × 5530 ) / 2
LCM(432,5530) = 2388960 / 2
LCM(432,5530) = 1194480
