5 | 115, 9950 |
23, 1990 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 5 x 23 x 1990 = 228850
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/228850
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1174/115,6146/9950 is 2/228850
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 115,9950 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(115,9950) = 5
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(115,9950) x common factors =5 x 1 = 5
LCM(115,9950) = ( 115 × 9950 ) / 5
LCM(115,9950) = 1144250 / 5
LCM(115,9950) = 228850
