So the greatest common factor 1500,8865 is 15.
Lets's calculate LCM of 765,993
3 | 765, 993 |
255, 331 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 255 x 331 = 253215
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 15/253215
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1500/765,8865/993 is 15/253215
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 765,993 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(765,993) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(765,993) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(765,993) = ( 765 × 993 ) / 3
LCM(765,993) = 759645 / 3
LCM(765,993) = 253215
