Lets's calculate LCM of 917,154
7 | 917, 154 |
131, 22 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 7 x 131 x 22 = 20174
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/20174
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2495/917,6955/154 is 5/20174
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 917,154 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(917,154) = 7
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(917,154) x common factors =7 x 1 = 7
LCM(917,154) = ( 917 × 154 ) / 7
LCM(917,154) = 141218 / 7
LCM(917,154) = 20174
