Lets's calculate LCM of 385,5580
5 | 385, 5580 |
77, 1116 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 5 x 77 x 1116 = 429660
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/429660
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1420/385,1501/5580 is 1/429660
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 385,5580 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(385,5580) = 5
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(385,5580) x common factors =5 x 1 = 5
LCM(385,5580) = ( 385 × 5580 ) / 5
LCM(385,5580) = 2148300 / 5
LCM(385,5580) = 429660
