Lets's calculate LCM of 128,424
2 | 128, 424 |
2 | 64, 212 |
2 | 32, 106 |
16, 53 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 16 x 53 = 6784
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/6784
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4071/128,2511/424 is 3/6784
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 128,424 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(128,424) = 8
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(128,424) x common factors =8 x 1 = 8
LCM(128,424) = ( 128 × 424 ) / 8
LCM(128,424) = 54272 / 8
LCM(128,424) = 6784
