Lets's calculate LCM of 285,3990
3 | 285, 3990 |
5 | 95, 1330 |
19 | 19, 266 |
1, 14 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 5 x 19 x 1 x 14 = 3990
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/3990
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2265/285,7989/3990 is 3/3990
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 285,3990 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(285,3990) = 285
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(285,3990) x common factors =285 x 1 = 285
LCM(285,3990) = ( 285 × 3990 ) / 285
LCM(285,3990) = 1137150 / 285
LCM(285,3990) = 3990
