Lets's calculate LCM of 472,560
2 | 472, 560 |
2 | 236, 280 |
2 | 118, 140 |
59, 70 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 59 x 70 = 33040
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/33040
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6468/472,2462/560 is 2/33040
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 472,560 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(472,560) = 8
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(472,560) x common factors =8 x 1 = 8
LCM(472,560) = ( 472 × 560 ) / 8
LCM(472,560) = 264320 / 8
LCM(472,560) = 33040
