Lets's calculate LCM of 160,1972
2 | 160, 1972 |
2 | 80, 986 |
40, 493 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 40 x 493 = 78880
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/78880
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3763/160,3888/1972 is 1/78880
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 160,1972 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(160,1972) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(160,1972) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(160,1972) = ( 160 × 1972 ) / 4
LCM(160,1972) = 315520 / 4
LCM(160,1972) = 78880
