Lets's calculate LCM of 255,476
17 | 255, 476 |
15, 28 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 17 x 15 x 28 = 7140
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 7/7140
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1946/255,6419/476 is 7/7140
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 255,476 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(255,476) = 17
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(255,476) x common factors =17 x 1 = 17
LCM(255,476) = ( 255 × 476 ) / 17
LCM(255,476) = 121380 / 17
LCM(255,476) = 7140
