Lets's calculate LCM of 905,950
5 | 905, 950 |
181, 190 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 5 x 181 x 190 = 171950
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 47/171950
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 423/905,7097/950 is 47/171950
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 905,950 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(905,950) = 5
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(905,950) x common factors =5 x 1 = 5
LCM(905,950) = ( 905 × 950 ) / 5
LCM(905,950) = 859750 / 5
LCM(905,950) = 171950
