Lets's calculate LCM of 847,2816
11 | 847, 2816 |
77, 256 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 11 x 77 x 256 = 216832
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/216832
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 424/847,3020/2816 is 4/216832
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 847,2816 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(847,2816) = 11
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(847,2816) x common factors =11 x 1 = 11
LCM(847,2816) = ( 847 × 2816 ) / 11
LCM(847,2816) = 2385152 / 11
LCM(847,2816) = 216832
