So the greatest common factor 2295,3170 is 5.
Lets's calculate LCM of 900,5020
2 | 900, 5020 |
2 | 450, 2510 |
5 | 225, 1255 |
45, 251 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 5 x 45 x 251 = 225900
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/225900
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2295/900,3170/5020 is 5/225900
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 900,5020 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(900,5020) = 20
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(900,5020) x common factors =20 x 1 = 20
LCM(900,5020) = ( 900 × 5020 ) / 20
LCM(900,5020) = 4518000 / 20
LCM(900,5020) = 225900
