2 | 816, 2544 |
2 | 408, 1272 |
2 | 204, 636 |
2 | 102, 318 |
3 | 51, 159 |
17, 53 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 17 x 53 = 43248
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 16/43248
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5808/816,3712/2544 is 16/43248
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 816,2544 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(816,2544) = 48
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(816,2544) x common factors =48 x 1 = 48
LCM(816,2544) = ( 816 × 2544 ) / 48
LCM(816,2544) = 2075904 / 48
LCM(816,2544) = 43248
