Lets's calculate LCM of 360,5709
3 | 360, 5709 |
120, 1903 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 120 x 1903 = 685080
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 20/685080
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6440/360,8340/5709 is 20/685080
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 360,5709 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(360,5709) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(360,5709) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(360,5709) = ( 360 × 5709 ) / 3
LCM(360,5709) = 2055240 / 3
LCM(360,5709) = 685080
