Lets's calculate LCM of 985,2845
5 | 985, 2845 |
197, 569 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 5 x 197 x 569 = 560465
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 7/560465
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7322/985,8659/2845 is 7/560465
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 985,2845 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(985,2845) = 5
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(985,2845) x common factors =5 x 1 = 5
LCM(985,2845) = ( 985 × 2845 ) / 5
LCM(985,2845) = 2802325 / 5
LCM(985,2845) = 560465
