So the greatest common factor 2604,8851 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 365,555
5 | 365, 555 |
73, 111 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 5 x 73 x 111 = 40515
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/40515
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2604/365,8851/555 is 1/40515
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 365,555 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(365,555) = 5
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(365,555) x common factors =5 x 1 = 5
LCM(365,555) = ( 365 × 555 ) / 5
LCM(365,555) = 202575 / 5
LCM(365,555) = 40515
