2 | 256, 6016 |
2 | 128, 3008 |
2 | 64, 1504 |
2 | 32, 752 |
2 | 16, 376 |
2 | 8, 188 |
2 | 4, 94 |
2, 47 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 47 = 12032
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 25/12032
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4900/256,9875/6016 is 25/12032
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 256,6016 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(256,6016) = 128
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(256,6016) x common factors =128 x 1 = 128
LCM(256,6016) = ( 256 × 6016 ) / 128
LCM(256,6016) = 1540096 / 128
LCM(256,6016) = 12032
