So the greatest common factor 48,9088 is 16.
Lets's calculate LCM of 685,3545
5 | 685, 3545 |
137, 709 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 5 x 137 x 709 = 485665
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 16/485665
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 48/685,9088/3545 is 16/485665
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 685,3545 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(685,3545) = 5
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(685,3545) x common factors =5 x 1 = 5
LCM(685,3545) = ( 685 × 3545 ) / 5
LCM(685,3545) = 2428325 / 5
LCM(685,3545) = 485665
