Lets's calculate LCM of 140,1080
2 | 140, 1080 |
2 | 70, 540 |
5 | 35, 270 |
7, 54 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 5 x 7 x 54 = 7560
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/7560
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5192/140,3842/1080 is 2/7560
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 140,1080 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(140,1080) = 20
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(140,1080) x common factors =20 x 1 = 20
LCM(140,1080) = ( 140 × 1080 ) / 20
LCM(140,1080) = 151200 / 20
LCM(140,1080) = 7560
