Lets's calculate LCM of 64,516
| 2 | 64, 516 |
| 2 | 32, 258 |
| 16, 129 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 16 x 129 = 8256
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 16/8256
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4048/64,5424/516 is 16/8256
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 64,516 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(64,516) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(64,516) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(64,516) = ( 64 × 516 ) / 4
LCM(64,516) = 33024 / 4
LCM(64,516) = 8256
