So the greatest common factor 616,728 is 56.
Lets's calculate LCM of 896,148
2 | 896, 148 |
2 | 448, 74 |
224, 37 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 224 x 37 = 33152
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 56/33152
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 616/896,728/148 is 56/33152
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 896,148 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(896,148) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(896,148) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(896,148) = ( 896 × 148 ) / 4
LCM(896,148) = 132608 / 4
LCM(896,148) = 33152
