Lets's calculate LCM of 896,3000
2 | 896, 3000 |
2 | 448, 1500 |
2 | 224, 750 |
112, 375 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 112 x 375 = 336000
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/336000
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5751/896,3678/3000 is 3/336000
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 896,3000 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(896,3000) = 8
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(896,3000) x common factors =8 x 1 = 8
LCM(896,3000) = ( 896 × 3000 ) / 8
LCM(896,3000) = 2688000 / 8
LCM(896,3000) = 336000
