Lets's calculate LCM of 286,160
2 | 286, 160 |
143, 80 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 143 x 80 = 22880
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/22880
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4644/286,4078/160 is 2/22880
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 286,160 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(286,160) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(286,160) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(286,160) = ( 286 × 160 ) / 2
LCM(286,160) = 45760 / 2
LCM(286,160) = 22880
