5 | 885, 6985 |
177, 1397 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 5 x 177 x 1397 = 1236345
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/1236345
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2026/885,6846/6985 is 2/1236345
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 885,6985 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(885,6985) = 5
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(885,6985) x common factors =5 x 1 = 5
LCM(885,6985) = ( 885 × 6985 ) / 5
LCM(885,6985) = 6181725 / 5
LCM(885,6985) = 1236345
