So the greatest common factor 640,928 is 32.
Lets's calculate LCM of 636,850
2 | 636, 850 |
318, 425 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 318 x 425 = 270300
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 32/270300
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 640/636,928/850 is 32/270300
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 636,850 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(636,850) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(636,850) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(636,850) = ( 636 × 850 ) / 2
LCM(636,850) = 540600 / 2
LCM(636,850) = 270300
