Lets's calculate LCM of 235,5875
5 | 235, 5875 |
47 | 47, 1175 |
1, 25 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 5 x 47 x 1 x 25 = 5875
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 14/5875
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 112/235,4270/5875 is 14/5875
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 235,5875 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(235,5875) = 235
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(235,5875) x common factors =235 x 1 = 235
LCM(235,5875) = ( 235 × 5875 ) / 235
LCM(235,5875) = 1380625 / 235
LCM(235,5875) = 5875
