So the greatest common factor 416,884 is 52.
Lets's calculate LCM of 68,550
2 | 68, 550 |
34, 275 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 34 x 275 = 18700
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 52/18700
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 416/68,884/550 is 52/18700
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 68,550 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(68,550) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(68,550) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(68,550) = ( 68 × 550 ) / 2
LCM(68,550) = 37400 / 2
LCM(68,550) = 18700
