So the greatest common factor 5664,3969 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 802,576
2 | 802, 576 |
401, 288 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 401 x 288 = 230976
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/230976
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5664/802,3969/576 is 3/230976
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 802,576 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(802,576) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(802,576) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(802,576) = ( 802 × 576 ) / 2
LCM(802,576) = 461952 / 2
LCM(802,576) = 230976
