Lets's calculate LCM of 254,880
2 | 254, 880 |
127, 440 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 127 x 440 = 111760
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 709/111760
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5672/254,4963/880 is 709/111760
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 254,880 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(254,880) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(254,880) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(254,880) = ( 254 × 880 ) / 2
LCM(254,880) = 223520 / 2
LCM(254,880) = 111760
