Lets's calculate LCM of 20,228
2 | 20, 228 |
2 | 10, 114 |
5, 57 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 5 x 57 = 1140
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/1140
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6645/20,2769/228 is 3/1140
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 20,228 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(20,228) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(20,228) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(20,228) = ( 20 × 228 ) / 4
LCM(20,228) = 4560 / 4
LCM(20,228) = 1140
