Lets's calculate LCM of 340,5290
2 | 340, 5290 |
5 | 170, 2645 |
34, 529 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 5 x 34 x 529 = 179860
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/179860
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8407/340,6535/5290 is 1/179860
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 340,5290 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(340,5290) = 10
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(340,5290) x common factors =10 x 1 = 10
LCM(340,5290) = ( 340 × 5290 ) / 10
LCM(340,5290) = 1798600 / 10
LCM(340,5290) = 179860
