Lets's calculate LCM of 595,290
5 | 595, 290 |
119, 58 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 5 x 119 x 58 = 34510
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/34510
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 150/595,892/290 is 2/34510
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 595,290 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(595,290) = 5
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(595,290) x common factors =5 x 1 = 5
LCM(595,290) = ( 595 × 290 ) / 5
LCM(595,290) = 172550 / 5
LCM(595,290) = 34510
