Lets's calculate LCM of 260,6370
2 | 260, 6370 |
5 | 130, 3185 |
13 | 26, 637 |
2, 49 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 5 x 13 x 2 x 49 = 12740
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/12740
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3603/260,4838/6370 is 1/12740
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 260,6370 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(260,6370) = 130
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(260,6370) x common factors =130 x 1 = 130
LCM(260,6370) = ( 260 × 6370 ) / 130
LCM(260,6370) = 1656200 / 130
LCM(260,6370) = 12740
