We found the factors 1666,7720 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1666,7720 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 96,372
2 | 96, 372 |
2 | 48, 186 |
3 | 24, 93 |
8, 31 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 3 x 8 x 31 = 2976
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/2976
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1666/96,7720/372 is 2/2976
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 96,372 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(96,372) = 12
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(96,372) x common factors =12 x 1 = 12
LCM(96,372) = ( 96 × 372 ) / 12
LCM(96,372) = 35712 / 12
LCM(96,372) = 2976
