Lets's calculate LCM of 332,3152
2 | 332, 3152 |
2 | 166, 1576 |
83, 788 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 83 x 788 = 261616
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 8/261616
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5160/332,9872/3152 is 8/261616
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 332,3152 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(332,3152) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(332,3152) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(332,3152) = ( 332 × 3152 ) / 4
LCM(332,3152) = 1046464 / 4
LCM(332,3152) = 261616
