So the greatest common factor 515,117 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 901,265
53 | 901, 265 |
17, 5 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 53 x 17 x 5 = 4505
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/4505
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 515/901,117/265 is 1/4505
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 901,265 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(901,265) = 53
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(901,265) x common factors =53 x 1 = 53
LCM(901,265) = ( 901 × 265 ) / 53
LCM(901,265) = 238765 / 53
LCM(901,265) = 4505
