We found the factors 4340,2400 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 4340,2400 is 20.
Lets's calculate LCM of 889,308
7 | 889, 308 |
127, 44 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 7 x 127 x 44 = 39116
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 20/39116
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4340/889,2400/308 is 20/39116
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 889,308 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(889,308) = 7
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(889,308) x common factors =7 x 1 = 7
LCM(889,308) = ( 889 × 308 ) / 7
LCM(889,308) = 273812 / 7
LCM(889,308) = 39116
