So the greatest common factor 5621,7290 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 304,5968
2 | 304, 5968 |
2 | 152, 2984 |
2 | 76, 1492 |
2 | 38, 746 |
19, 373 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 19 x 373 = 113392
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/113392
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5621/304,7290/5968 is 1/113392
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 304,5968 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(304,5968) = 16
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(304,5968) x common factors =16 x 1 = 16
LCM(304,5968) = ( 304 × 5968 ) / 16
LCM(304,5968) = 1814272 / 16
LCM(304,5968) = 113392
