Lets's calculate LCM of 528,368
2 | 528, 368 |
2 | 264, 184 |
2 | 132, 92 |
2 | 66, 46 |
33, 23 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 33 x 23 = 12144
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 55/12144
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3685/528,2200/368 is 55/12144
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 528,368 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(528,368) = 16
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(528,368) x common factors =16 x 1 = 16
LCM(528,368) = ( 528 × 368 ) / 16
LCM(528,368) = 194304 / 16
LCM(528,368) = 12144
