5 | 915, 7385 |
183, 1477 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 5 x 183 x 1477 = 1351455
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/1351455
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3656/915,7162/7385 is 2/1351455
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 915,7385 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(915,7385) = 5
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(915,7385) x common factors =5 x 1 = 5
LCM(915,7385) = ( 915 × 7385 ) / 5
LCM(915,7385) = 6757275 / 5
LCM(915,7385) = 1351455
