So the greatest common factor 495,385 is 55.
Lets's calculate LCM of 203,882
7 | 203, 882 |
29, 126 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 7 x 29 x 126 = 25578
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 55/25578
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 495/203,385/882 is 55/25578
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 203,882 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(203,882) = 7
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(203,882) x common factors =7 x 1 = 7
LCM(203,882) = ( 203 × 882 ) / 7
LCM(203,882) = 179046 / 7
LCM(203,882) = 25578
