Lets's calculate LCM of 185,585
5 | 185, 585 |
37, 117 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 5 x 37 x 117 = 21645
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/21645
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3679/185,2079/585 is 1/21645
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 185,585 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(185,585) = 5
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(185,585) x common factors =5 x 1 = 5
LCM(185,585) = ( 185 × 585 ) / 5
LCM(185,585) = 108225 / 5
LCM(185,585) = 21645
