So the greatest common factor 8502,4147 is 13.
Lets's calculate LCM of 260,3016
2 | 260, 3016 |
2 | 130, 1508 |
13 | 65, 754 |
5, 58 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 13 x 5 x 58 = 15080
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 13/15080
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8502/260,4147/3016 is 13/15080
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 260,3016 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(260,3016) = 52
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(260,3016) x common factors =52 x 1 = 52
LCM(260,3016) = ( 260 × 3016 ) / 52
LCM(260,3016) = 784160 / 52
LCM(260,3016) = 15080
