Lets's calculate LCM of 592,3880
2 | 592, 3880 |
2 | 296, 1940 |
2 | 148, 970 |
74, 485 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 74 x 485 = 287120
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/287120
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3587/592,8403/3880 is 1/287120
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 592,3880 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(592,3880) = 8
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(592,3880) x common factors =8 x 1 = 8
LCM(592,3880) = ( 592 × 3880 ) / 8
LCM(592,3880) = 2296960 / 8
LCM(592,3880) = 287120
