Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 4630,1872 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 4630,1872 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 670,960
2 | 670, 960 |
5 | 335, 480 |
67, 96 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 5 x 67 x 96 = 64320
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/64320
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4630/670,1872/960 is 2/64320
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 670,960 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(670,960) = 10
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(670,960) x common factors =10 x 1 = 10
LCM(670,960) = ( 670 × 960 ) / 10
LCM(670,960) = 643200 / 10
LCM(670,960) = 64320
