Lets's calculate LCM of 585,4045
5 | 585, 4045 |
117, 809 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 5 x 117 x 809 = 473265
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 6/473265
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4362/585,2304/4045 is 6/473265
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 585,4045 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(585,4045) = 5
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(585,4045) x common factors =5 x 1 = 5
LCM(585,4045) = ( 585 × 4045 ) / 5
LCM(585,4045) = 2366325 / 5
LCM(585,4045) = 473265
