Lets's calculate LCM of 395,3120
5 | 395, 3120 |
79, 624 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 5 x 79 x 624 = 246480
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/246480
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7188/395,2746/3120 is 2/246480
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 395,3120 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(395,3120) = 5
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(395,3120) x common factors =5 x 1 = 5
LCM(395,3120) = ( 395 × 3120 ) / 5
LCM(395,3120) = 1232400 / 5
LCM(395,3120) = 246480
