So the greatest common factor 60,8890 is 10.
Lets's calculate LCM of 170,9038
2 | 170, 9038 |
85, 4519 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 85 x 4519 = 768230
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 10/768230
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 60/170,8890/9038 is 10/768230
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 170,9038 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(170,9038) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(170,9038) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(170,9038) = ( 170 × 9038 ) / 2
LCM(170,9038) = 1536460 / 2
LCM(170,9038) = 768230
