Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 2740,8040 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2740,8040 is 20.
Lets's calculate LCM of 732,662
2 | 732, 662 |
366, 331 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 366 x 331 = 242292
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 20/242292
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2740/732,8040/662 is 20/242292
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 732,662 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(732,662) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(732,662) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(732,662) = ( 732 × 662 ) / 2
LCM(732,662) = 484584 / 2
LCM(732,662) = 242292
