Lets's calculate LCM of 564,5040
2 | 564, 5040 |
2 | 282, 2520 |
3 | 141, 1260 |
47, 420 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 3 x 47 x 420 = 236880
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/236880
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5060/564,8256/5040 is 4/236880
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 564,5040 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(564,5040) = 12
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(564,5040) x common factors =12 x 1 = 12
LCM(564,5040) = ( 564 × 5040 ) / 12
LCM(564,5040) = 2842560 / 12
LCM(564,5040) = 236880
