Lets's calculate LCM of 306,321
3 | 306, 321 |
102, 107 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 102 x 107 = 32742
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 70/32742
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8960/306,7210/321 is 70/32742
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 306,321 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(306,321) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(306,321) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(306,321) = ( 306 × 321 ) / 3
LCM(306,321) = 98226 / 3
LCM(306,321) = 32742
