So the greatest common factor 105,555 is 15.
Lets's calculate LCM of 180,850
2 | 180, 850 |
5 | 90, 425 |
18, 85 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 5 x 18 x 85 = 15300
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 15/15300
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 105/180,555/850 is 15/15300
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 180,850 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(180,850) = 10
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(180,850) x common factors =10 x 1 = 10
LCM(180,850) = ( 180 × 850 ) / 10
LCM(180,850) = 153000 / 10
LCM(180,850) = 15300
