Lets's calculate LCM of 544,5440
2 | 544, 5440 |
2 | 272, 2720 |
2 | 136, 1360 |
2 | 68, 680 |
2 | 34, 340 |
17 | 17, 170 |
1, 10 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 17 x 1 x 10 = 5440
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/5440
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4493/544,3728/5440 is 1/5440
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 544,5440 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(544,5440) = 544
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(544,5440) x common factors =544 x 1 = 544
LCM(544,5440) = ( 544 × 5440 ) / 544
LCM(544,5440) = 2959360 / 544
LCM(544,5440) = 5440
