So the greatest common factor 1995,8895 is 15.
Lets's calculate LCM of 334,788
2 | 334, 788 |
167, 394 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 167 x 394 = 131596
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 15/131596
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1995/334,8895/788 is 15/131596
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 334,788 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(334,788) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(334,788) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(334,788) = ( 334 × 788 ) / 2
LCM(334,788) = 263192 / 2
LCM(334,788) = 131596
