So the greatest common factor 512,6208 is 64.
Lets's calculate LCM of 688,382
2 | 688, 382 |
344, 191 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 344 x 191 = 131408
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 64/131408
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 512/688,6208/382 is 64/131408
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 688,382 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(688,382) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(688,382) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(688,382) = ( 688 × 382 ) / 2
LCM(688,382) = 262816 / 2
LCM(688,382) = 131408
