Lets's calculate LCM of 640,6316
2 | 640, 6316 |
2 | 320, 3158 |
160, 1579 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 160 x 1579 = 1010560
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 12/1010560
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8424/640,1668/6316 is 12/1010560
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 640,6316 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(640,6316) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(640,6316) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(640,6316) = ( 640 × 6316 ) / 4
LCM(640,6316) = 4042240 / 4
LCM(640,6316) = 1010560
