Lets's calculate LCM of 304,3152
2 | 304, 3152 |
2 | 152, 1576 |
2 | 76, 788 |
2 | 38, 394 |
19, 197 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 19 x 197 = 59888
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/59888
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6598/304,2108/3152 is 2/59888
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 304,3152 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(304,3152) = 16
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(304,3152) x common factors =16 x 1 = 16
LCM(304,3152) = ( 304 × 3152 ) / 16
LCM(304,3152) = 958208 / 16
LCM(304,3152) = 59888
