Lets's calculate LCM of 295,4300
5 | 295, 4300 |
59, 860 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 5 x 59 x 860 = 253700
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 14/253700
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7658/295,2142/4300 is 14/253700
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 295,4300 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(295,4300) = 5
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(295,4300) x common factors =5 x 1 = 5
LCM(295,4300) = ( 295 × 4300 ) / 5
LCM(295,4300) = 1268500 / 5
LCM(295,4300) = 253700
