Lets's calculate LCM of 288,140
2 | 288, 140 |
2 | 144, 70 |
72, 35 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 72 x 35 = 10080
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/10080
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4489/288,5530/140 is 1/10080
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 288,140 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(288,140) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(288,140) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(288,140) = ( 288 × 140 ) / 4
LCM(288,140) = 40320 / 4
LCM(288,140) = 10080
