So the greatest common factor 9960,1764 is 12.
Lets's calculate LCM of 520,5648
2 | 520, 5648 |
2 | 260, 2824 |
2 | 130, 1412 |
65, 706 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 65 x 706 = 367120
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 12/367120
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9960/520,1764/5648 is 12/367120
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 520,5648 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(520,5648) = 8
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(520,5648) x common factors =8 x 1 = 8
LCM(520,5648) = ( 520 × 5648 ) / 8
LCM(520,5648) = 2936960 / 8
LCM(520,5648) = 367120
