So the greatest common factor 5209,2631 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 965,740
5 | 965, 740 |
193, 148 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 5 x 193 x 148 = 142820
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/142820
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5209/965,2631/740 is 1/142820
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 965,740 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(965,740) = 5
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(965,740) x common factors =5 x 1 = 5
LCM(965,740) = ( 965 × 740 ) / 5
LCM(965,740) = 714100 / 5
LCM(965,740) = 142820
