Lets's calculate LCM of 430,638
2 | 430, 638 |
215, 319 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 215 x 319 = 137170
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 10/137170
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3920/430,3890/638 is 10/137170
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 430,638 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(430,638) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(430,638) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(430,638) = ( 430 × 638 ) / 2
LCM(430,638) = 274340 / 2
LCM(430,638) = 137170
