Lets's calculate LCM of 308,261
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 80388
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/80388
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7685/308,5585/261 is 5/80388
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 308,261 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(308,261) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(308,261) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(308,261) = ( 308 × 261 ) / 1
LCM(308,261) = 80388 / 1
LCM(308,261) = 80388
