Lets's calculate LCM of 512,1664
2 | 512, 1664 |
2 | 256, 832 |
2 | 128, 416 |
2 | 64, 208 |
2 | 32, 104 |
2 | 16, 52 |
2 | 8, 26 |
4, 13 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 4 x 13 = 6656
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/6656
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7432/512,7249/1664 is 1/6656
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 512,1664 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(512,1664) = 128
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(512,1664) x common factors =128 x 1 = 128
LCM(512,1664) = ( 512 × 1664 ) / 128
LCM(512,1664) = 851968 / 128
LCM(512,1664) = 6656
