So the greatest common factor 69,87 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 440,7952
2 | 440, 7952 |
2 | 220, 3976 |
2 | 110, 1988 |
55, 994 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 55 x 994 = 437360
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/437360
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 69/440,87/7952 is 3/437360
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 440,7952 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(440,7952) = 8
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(440,7952) x common factors =8 x 1 = 8
LCM(440,7952) = ( 440 × 7952 ) / 8
LCM(440,7952) = 3498880 / 8
LCM(440,7952) = 437360
