Lets's calculate LCM of 508,2324
2 | 508, 2324 |
2 | 254, 1162 |
127, 581 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 127 x 581 = 295148
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/295148
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 440/508,1228/2324 is 4/295148
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 508,2324 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(508,2324) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(508,2324) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(508,2324) = ( 508 × 2324 ) / 4
LCM(508,2324) = 1180592 / 4
LCM(508,2324) = 295148
