So the greatest common factor 3931,7433 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 256,430
2 | 256, 430 |
128, 215 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 128 x 215 = 55040
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/55040
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3931/256,7433/430 is 1/55040
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 256,430 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(256,430) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(256,430) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(256,430) = ( 256 × 430 ) / 2
LCM(256,430) = 110080 / 2
LCM(256,430) = 55040
