So the greatest common factor 9576,4172 is 28.
Lets's calculate LCM of 960,470
2 | 960, 470 |
5 | 480, 235 |
96, 47 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 5 x 96 x 47 = 45120
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 28/45120
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9576/960,4172/470 is 28/45120
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 960,470 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(960,470) = 10
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(960,470) x common factors =10 x 1 = 10
LCM(960,470) = ( 960 × 470 ) / 10
LCM(960,470) = 451200 / 10
LCM(960,470) = 45120
