3 | 795, 8088 |
265, 2696 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 265 x 2696 = 2143320
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/2143320
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5991/795,2935/8088 is 1/2143320
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 795,8088 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(795,8088) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(795,8088) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(795,8088) = ( 795 × 8088 ) / 3
LCM(795,8088) = 6429960 / 3
LCM(795,8088) = 2143320
