So the greatest common factor 5920,5015 is 5.
Lets's calculate LCM of 600,222
2 | 600, 222 |
3 | 300, 111 |
100, 37 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 100 x 37 = 22200
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/22200
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5920/600,5015/222 is 5/22200
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 600,222 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(600,222) = 6
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(600,222) x common factors =6 x 1 = 6
LCM(600,222) = ( 600 × 222 ) / 6
LCM(600,222) = 133200 / 6
LCM(600,222) = 22200
