So the greatest common factor 400,385 is 5.
Lets's calculate LCM of 655,690
5 | 655, 690 |
131, 138 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 5 x 131 x 138 = 90390
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/90390
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 400/655,385/690 is 5/90390
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 655,690 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(655,690) = 5
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(655,690) x common factors =5 x 1 = 5
LCM(655,690) = ( 655 × 690 ) / 5
LCM(655,690) = 451950 / 5
LCM(655,690) = 90390
