Lets's calculate LCM of 835,500
5 | 835, 500 |
167, 100 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 5 x 167 x 100 = 83500
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/83500
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3949/835,7495/500 is 1/83500
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 835,500 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(835,500) = 5
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(835,500) x common factors =5 x 1 = 5
LCM(835,500) = ( 835 × 500 ) / 5
LCM(835,500) = 417500 / 5
LCM(835,500) = 83500
