19 | 589, 665 |
31, 35 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 19 x 31 x 35 = 20615
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/20615
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 135/589,725/665 is 5/20615
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 589,665 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(589,665) = 19
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(589,665) x common factors =19 x 1 = 19
LCM(589,665) = ( 589 × 665 ) / 19
LCM(589,665) = 391685 / 19
LCM(589,665) = 20615
