So the greatest common factor 5704,5715 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 400,8945
5 | 400, 8945 |
80, 1789 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 5 x 80 x 1789 = 715600
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/715600
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5704/400,5715/8945 is 1/715600
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 400,8945 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(400,8945) = 5
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(400,8945) x common factors =5 x 1 = 5
LCM(400,8945) = ( 400 × 8945 ) / 5
LCM(400,8945) = 3578000 / 5
LCM(400,8945) = 715600
