5 | 655, 2820 |
131, 564 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 5 x 131 x 564 = 369420
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/369420
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8444/655,2182/2820 is 2/369420
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 655,2820 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(655,2820) = 5
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(655,2820) x common factors =5 x 1 = 5
LCM(655,2820) = ( 655 × 2820 ) / 5
LCM(655,2820) = 1847100 / 5
LCM(655,2820) = 369420
