So the greatest common factor 319,899 is 29.
Lets's calculate LCM of 4480,8580
2 | 4480, 8580 |
2 | 2240, 4290 |
5 | 1120, 2145 |
224, 429 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 5 x 224 x 429 = 1921920
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 29/1921920
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 319/4480,899/8580 is 29/1921920
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 4480,8580 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(4480,8580) = 20
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(4480,8580) x common factors =20 x 1 = 20
LCM(4480,8580) = ( 4480 × 8580 ) / 20
LCM(4480,8580) = 38438400 / 20
LCM(4480,8580) = 1921920
