Lets's calculate LCM of 205,660
5 | 205, 660 |
41, 132 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 5 x 41 x 132 = 27060
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/27060
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5541/205,4731/660 is 3/27060
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 205,660 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(205,660) = 5
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(205,660) x common factors =5 x 1 = 5
LCM(205,660) = ( 205 × 660 ) / 5
LCM(205,660) = 135300 / 5
LCM(205,660) = 27060
