Lets's calculate LCM of 270,582
2 | 270, 582 |
3 | 135, 291 |
45, 97 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 45 x 97 = 26190
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 10/26190
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3970/270,1310/582 is 10/26190
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 270,582 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(270,582) = 6
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(270,582) x common factors =6 x 1 = 6
LCM(270,582) = ( 270 × 582 ) / 6
LCM(270,582) = 157140 / 6
LCM(270,582) = 26190
