Lets's calculate LCM of 255,9255
3 | 255, 9255 |
5 | 85, 3085 |
17, 617 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 5 x 17 x 617 = 157335
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/157335
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2251/255,6994/9255 is 1/157335
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 255,9255 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(255,9255) = 15
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(255,9255) x common factors =15 x 1 = 15
LCM(255,9255) = ( 255 × 9255 ) / 15
LCM(255,9255) = 2360025 / 15
LCM(255,9255) = 157335
