Lets's calculate LCM of 320,608
2 | 320, 608 |
2 | 160, 304 |
2 | 80, 152 |
2 | 40, 76 |
2 | 20, 38 |
10, 19 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 10 x 19 = 6080
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/6080
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6541/320,8708/608 is 1/6080
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 320,608 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(320,608) = 32
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(320,608) x common factors =32 x 1 = 32
LCM(320,608) = ( 320 × 608 ) / 32
LCM(320,608) = 194560 / 32
LCM(320,608) = 6080
