5 | 715, 6145 |
143, 1229 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 5 x 143 x 1229 = 878735
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/878735
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5539/715,3609/6145 is 1/878735
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 715,6145 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(715,6145) = 5
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(715,6145) x common factors =5 x 1 = 5
LCM(715,6145) = ( 715 × 6145 ) / 5
LCM(715,6145) = 4393675 / 5
LCM(715,6145) = 878735
