So the greatest common factor 5655,8996 is 13.
Lets's calculate LCM of 90,932
| 2 | 90, 932 |
| 45, 466 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 45 x 466 = 41940
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 13/41940
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5655/90,8996/932 is 13/41940
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 90,932 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(90,932) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(90,932) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(90,932) = ( 90 × 932 ) / 2
LCM(90,932) = 83880 / 2
LCM(90,932) = 41940
