Lets's calculate LCM of 980,345
5 | 980, 345 |
196, 69 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 5 x 196 x 69 = 67620
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 8/67620
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5456/980,1528/345 is 8/67620
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 980,345 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(980,345) = 5
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(980,345) x common factors =5 x 1 = 5
LCM(980,345) = ( 980 × 345 ) / 5
LCM(980,345) = 338100 / 5
LCM(980,345) = 67620
