Lets's calculate LCM of 330,5832
2 | 330, 5832 |
3 | 165, 2916 |
55, 972 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 55 x 972 = 320760
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/320760
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8421/330,2218/5832 is 1/320760
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 330,5832 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(330,5832) = 6
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(330,5832) x common factors =6 x 1 = 6
LCM(330,5832) = ( 330 × 5832 ) / 6
LCM(330,5832) = 1924560 / 6
LCM(330,5832) = 320760
