So the greatest common factor 2358,5420 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 666,772
2 | 666, 772 |
333, 386 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 333 x 386 = 257076
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/257076
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2358/666,5420/772 is 2/257076
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 666,772 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(666,772) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(666,772) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(666,772) = ( 666 × 772 ) / 2
LCM(666,772) = 514152 / 2
LCM(666,772) = 257076
