We found the factors 4440,5200 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 4440,5200 is 40.
Lets's calculate LCM of 165,486
3 | 165, 486 |
55, 162 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 55 x 162 = 26730
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 40/26730
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4440/165,5200/486 is 40/26730
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 165,486 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(165,486) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(165,486) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(165,486) = ( 165 × 486 ) / 3
LCM(165,486) = 80190 / 3
LCM(165,486) = 26730
