Lets's calculate LCM of 510,1960
2 | 510, 1960 |
5 | 255, 980 |
51, 196 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 5 x 51 x 196 = 99960
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/99960
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6962/510,1209/1960 is 1/99960
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 510,1960 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(510,1960) = 10
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(510,1960) x common factors =10 x 1 = 10
LCM(510,1960) = ( 510 × 1960 ) / 10
LCM(510,1960) = 999600 / 10
LCM(510,1960) = 99960
