Lets's calculate LCM of 60,6640
2 | 60, 6640 |
2 | 30, 3320 |
5 | 15, 1660 |
3, 332 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 5 x 3 x 332 = 19920
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 47/19920
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 470/60,611/6640 is 47/19920
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 60,6640 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(60,6640) = 20
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(60,6640) x common factors =20 x 1 = 20
LCM(60,6640) = ( 60 × 6640 ) / 20
LCM(60,6640) = 398400 / 20
LCM(60,6640) = 19920
