5 | 290, 895 |
58, 179 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 5 x 58 x 179 = 51910
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/51910
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6943/290,2945/895 is 1/51910
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 290,895 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(290,895) = 5
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(290,895) x common factors =5 x 1 = 5
LCM(290,895) = ( 290 × 895 ) / 5
LCM(290,895) = 259550 / 5
LCM(290,895) = 51910
