Lets's calculate LCM of 804,540
2 | 804, 540 |
2 | 402, 270 |
3 | 201, 135 |
67, 45 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 3 x 67 x 45 = 36180
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/36180
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4262/804,8906/540 is 2/36180
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 804,540 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(804,540) = 12
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(804,540) x common factors =12 x 1 = 12
LCM(804,540) = ( 804 × 540 ) / 12
LCM(804,540) = 434160 / 12
LCM(804,540) = 36180
