So the greatest common factor 8730,2438 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 200,3904
2 | 200, 3904 |
2 | 100, 1952 |
2 | 50, 976 |
25, 488 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 25 x 488 = 97600
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/97600
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8730/200,2438/3904 is 2/97600
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 200,3904 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(200,3904) = 8
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(200,3904) x common factors =8 x 1 = 8
LCM(200,3904) = ( 200 × 3904 ) / 8
LCM(200,3904) = 780800 / 8
LCM(200,3904) = 97600
