Lets's calculate LCM of 35,5918
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 207130
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 15/207130
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 795/35,960/5918 is 15/207130
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 35,5918 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(35,5918) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(35,5918) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(35,5918) = ( 35 × 5918 ) / 1
LCM(35,5918) = 207130 / 1
LCM(35,5918) = 207130
