So the greatest common factor 6615,2555 is 35.
Lets's calculate LCM of 271,235
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 63685
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 35/63685
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6615/271,2555/235 is 35/63685
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 271,235 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(271,235) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(271,235) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(271,235) = ( 271 × 235 ) / 1
LCM(271,235) = 63685 / 1
LCM(271,235) = 63685
