Lets's calculate LCM of 465,7445
5 | 465, 7445 |
93, 1489 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 5 x 93 x 1489 = 692385
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 16/692385
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6720/465,8336/7445 is 16/692385
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 465,7445 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(465,7445) = 5
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(465,7445) x common factors =5 x 1 = 5
LCM(465,7445) = ( 465 × 7445 ) / 5
LCM(465,7445) = 3461925 / 5
LCM(465,7445) = 692385
