So the greatest common factor 616,2068 is 44.
Lets's calculate LCM of 840,300
2 | 840, 300 |
2 | 420, 150 |
3 | 210, 75 |
5 | 70, 25 |
14, 5 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 3 x 5 x 14 x 5 = 4200
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 44/4200
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 616/840,2068/300 is 44/4200
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 840,300 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(840,300) = 60
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(840,300) x common factors =60 x 1 = 60
LCM(840,300) = ( 840 × 300 ) / 60
LCM(840,300) = 252000 / 60
LCM(840,300) = 4200
