Lets's calculate LCM of 360,5764
2 | 360, 5764 |
2 | 180, 2882 |
90, 1441 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 90 x 1441 = 518760
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/518760
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 81/360,6432/5764 is 3/518760
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 360,5764 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(360,5764) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(360,5764) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(360,5764) = ( 360 × 5764 ) / 4
LCM(360,5764) = 2075040 / 4
LCM(360,5764) = 518760
