3 | 855, 5373 |
3 | 285, 1791 |
95, 597 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 3 x 95 x 597 = 510435
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/510435
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6715/855,8542/5373 is 1/510435
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 855,5373 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(855,5373) = 9
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(855,5373) x common factors =9 x 1 = 9
LCM(855,5373) = ( 855 × 5373 ) / 9
LCM(855,5373) = 4593915 / 9
LCM(855,5373) = 510435
