2 | 320, 4416 |
2 | 160, 2208 |
2 | 80, 1104 |
2 | 40, 552 |
2 | 20, 276 |
2 | 10, 138 |
5, 69 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 5 x 69 = 44160
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/44160
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6348/640,2936/8832 is 4/44160
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 640,8832 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(640,8832) = 128
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(640,8832) x common factors =128 x 1 = 128
LCM(640,8832) = ( 640 × 8832 ) / 128
LCM(640,8832) = 5652480 / 128
LCM(640,8832) = 44160
