Lets's calculate LCM of 430,4045
5 | 430, 4045 |
86, 809 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 5 x 86 x 809 = 347870
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 12/347870
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 996/430,1764/4045 is 12/347870
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 430,4045 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(430,4045) = 5
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(430,4045) x common factors =5 x 1 = 5
LCM(430,4045) = ( 430 × 4045 ) / 5
LCM(430,4045) = 1739350 / 5
LCM(430,4045) = 347870
