Lets's calculate LCM of 890,615
5 | 890, 615 |
178, 123 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 5 x 178 x 123 = 109470
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 18/109470
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2646/890,3438/615 is 18/109470
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 890,615 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(890,615) = 5
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(890,615) x common factors =5 x 1 = 5
LCM(890,615) = ( 890 × 615 ) / 5
LCM(890,615) = 547350 / 5
LCM(890,615) = 109470
