So the greatest common factor 388,9080 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 536,412
2 | 536, 412 |
2 | 268, 206 |
134, 103 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 134 x 103 = 55208
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/55208
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 388/536,9080/412 is 4/55208
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 536,412 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(536,412) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(536,412) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(536,412) = ( 536 × 412 ) / 4
LCM(536,412) = 220832 / 4
LCM(536,412) = 55208
