Lets's calculate LCM of 460,510
2 | 460, 510 |
5 | 230, 255 |
46, 51 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 5 x 46 x 51 = 23460
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 8/23460
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3952/460,4232/510 is 8/23460
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 460,510 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(460,510) = 10
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(460,510) x common factors =10 x 1 = 10
LCM(460,510) = ( 460 × 510 ) / 10
LCM(460,510) = 234600 / 10
LCM(460,510) = 23460
