So the greatest common factor 566,696 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 532,370
2 | 532, 370 |
266, 185 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 266 x 185 = 98420
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/98420
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 566/532,696/370 is 2/98420
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 532,370 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(532,370) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(532,370) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(532,370) = ( 532 × 370 ) / 2
LCM(532,370) = 196840 / 2
LCM(532,370) = 98420
