2 | 640, 1396 |
2 | 320, 698 |
160, 349 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 160 x 349 = 223360
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/223360
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 447/640,5466/1396 is 3/223360
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 640,1396 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(640,1396) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(640,1396) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(640,1396) = ( 640 × 1396 ) / 4
LCM(640,1396) = 893440 / 4
LCM(640,1396) = 223360
