Lets's calculate LCM of 385,3883
11 | 385, 3883 |
35, 353 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 11 x 35 x 353 = 135905
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/135905
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7314/385,1509/3883 is 3/135905
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 385,3883 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(385,3883) = 11
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(385,3883) x common factors =11 x 1 = 11
LCM(385,3883) = ( 385 × 3883 ) / 11
LCM(385,3883) = 1494955 / 11
LCM(385,3883) = 135905
