So the greatest common factor 2911,3318 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 384,848
2 | 384, 848 |
2 | 192, 424 |
2 | 96, 212 |
2 | 48, 106 |
24, 53 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 24 x 53 = 20352
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/20352
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2911/384,3318/848 is 1/20352
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 384,848 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(384,848) = 16
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(384,848) x common factors =16 x 1 = 16
LCM(384,848) = ( 384 × 848 ) / 16
LCM(384,848) = 325632 / 16
LCM(384,848) = 20352
