Lets's calculate LCM of 66,4128
2 | 66, 4128 |
3 | 33, 2064 |
11, 688 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 11 x 688 = 45408
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 167/45408
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 668/66,501/4128 is 167/45408
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 66,4128 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(66,4128) = 6
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(66,4128) x common factors =6 x 1 = 6
LCM(66,4128) = ( 66 × 4128 ) / 6
LCM(66,4128) = 272448 / 6
LCM(66,4128) = 45408
