We found the factors 8226,1992 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 8226,1992 is 6.
Lets's calculate LCM of 384,5740
2 | 384, 5740 |
2 | 192, 2870 |
96, 1435 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 96 x 1435 = 551040
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 6/551040
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8226/384,1992/5740 is 6/551040
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 384,5740 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(384,5740) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(384,5740) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(384,5740) = ( 384 × 5740 ) / 4
LCM(384,5740) = 2204160 / 4
LCM(384,5740) = 551040
