Lets's calculate LCM of 795,996
3 | 795, 996 |
265, 332 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 265 x 332 = 263940
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/263940
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 415/795,1260/996 is 5/263940
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 795,996 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(795,996) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(795,996) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(795,996) = ( 795 × 996 ) / 3
LCM(795,996) = 791820 / 3
LCM(795,996) = 263940
