Lets's calculate LCM of 990,5374
2 | 990, 5374 |
495, 2687 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 495 x 2687 = 2660130
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 16/2660130
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8032/990,1040/5374 is 16/2660130
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 990,5374 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(990,5374) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(990,5374) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(990,5374) = ( 990 × 5374 ) / 2
LCM(990,5374) = 5320260 / 2
LCM(990,5374) = 2660130
